St Albans ramp in place


The new St Albans Park skate rampThe new skateboard ramp has been installed in St Albans Park.

Shirley-Papanui Community Board identified the need after two years of discussions with board members, residents and skaters.

A trial was carried with a temporary wooden skateboard ramp and the final design had input from local skaters along with some other skating experts in Christchurch. The concrete ramp is now used frequently.

A grand opening will be held, probably in the spring.

The temporary skateboard ramp has been moved to Brooklands to assess the need there and the community board has learnt that young people are also keen to have a skateboard ramp in Macfarlane Park.
