Haydon Wick Parish Council is delighted to announce that works on the Haydonleigh Skate Park are now underway.

The project began this week with the installation of the dropped kerb; a temporary measure that is needed to safely transport the new equipment to site.

The next stage is preparing the ground in readiness for the installation of the new skate park equipment and the proposed installation should start by the end of June. Due to the Covid-19 outbreak there have understandably been delays to the start of this project as our partners have been working with limited resources. However we are hopeful that once the wheels are in motion and installation is underway it will be a matter of weeks before the new skate park is complete.

The new skate park is designed in such a way it can be used with skateboards, scooters, bikes and wheelchairs and to suit a range of ages and abilities. Readers can view the 3D model to see how impressive this new park will be for Haydon Wick: https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/415-haydonwick-tenderdesign-annotated-1164b2e754244ffc9f259dcfa7d38f8f

Once the park is complete, the Council hopes it will be able to open the park safely and in line with the latest Government guidance at the time. More about this as the installation progresses.
