Queen Elizabeth Park set for an upgrade
Greater Wellington wants to know what residents think about the future of Queen Elizabeth Park.
More barbecues, picnic facilities, food trucks, shelters, bird hides, new trails, and better facilities for horses are all proposals aimed to increase the number of people using the park.
The new facilities are being proposed by Greater Wellington in its draft Toitū Te Whenua Parks Network Plan 2020-30, the blueprint for the development of regional parks over the next decade.
Among the many proposals on which Greater Wellington is seeking comment are:
* Improvements to the Paekākāriki picnic area, including BBQs and shelters, nature play and Camp Paekākāriki storytelling.
* Explore options for co-location and improvement of equestrian facilities for all groups to boost the park as a casual riding and equestrian sports destination.
* Improve equestrian facilities for all groups to boost the park as a casual riding and equestrian sports destination.
