Details

We will be undertaking the construction of a new building in the south-west corner of the park.

  • We anticipate there will be some noise, vibrations, and dust during excavation and construction. Every effort will be made to minimise the impact of this work as much as possible.
  • Temporary fencing will be in place around the contractor work area, and this zone will be closed to the public. This includes the on-site car park, so please use street parking instead.
  • The remainder of the park will remain open for normal public access.
