Popular skate park to undergo repairs

The popular Goonellabah Skate Park off Oliver Avenue will have sections of the park closed for up to four days from Monday, 8 November to improve the surface areas of the park.

Sections of the park will be fenced off during repairs and community members are asked not to enter those areas until the works are completed, and to only use sections not fenced off.

Manager of Liveable and Active Communities Tony Duffy said the repairs will improve the park for users.

“The work will improve the park’s durability and ensure it remains a popular and safe place for our community,” he said.

“Repairs will focus on smoothing the surface of roll out and banked areas, coloured tinted sealer and epoxy repairs to cracks throughout the skatepark.”

Since it opened in 2009, Council has scheduled regular repairs to ensure the longevity of the park.
