Have your say on Newland Park design

Posted on 17 Aug, 2023

Alice Springs Town Council and Playce are designing a new Regional Skate and Play Park for Newland Park, with the initial concept design now endorsed by Council.

But our work is not yet done! To keep the ball rolling, we will be hold­ing a Tech­ni­cal Skatepark Con­sul­ta­tion where skate and BMX enthu­si­asts can dis­cuss what sort of fea­tures and flows/​transitions they would want in a skatepark. This will be an oppor­tu­ni­ty dis­cuss options, ideas, and shape the design of skatepark com­po­nent of the park.

Fur­ther to gath­er­ing this tech­ni­cal feed­back on the skatepark design, the oth­er key ele­ments of the space will be devel­oped for pub­lic con­sul­ta­tion in Octo­ber 2023 which will involve com­plet­ed 3D ren­ders so res­i­dents have the abil­i­ty to bet­ter visu­alise the park and its ameni­ties. This will be the oppor­tu­ni­ty for the wider pub­lic to have a say on what they love about the con­cept design, what could be improved and what is missing.
