Thrills not spills on new pump track
A brand new, sealed pump track at Bexley Reserve is set to delight park users.
The 2,500m2 track caters for wheels of all kinds, from bikes and scooters to skateboards and even wheelchairs.
North Avon Christchurch BMX Club has funded and built the new track on land next to its existing BMX track. The club then gifted the track to the Christchurch City Council which will look after ongoing maintenance.
It cost $650,000 and incorporates two loops, one of which has been constructed to be inclusive for wheelchairs.
The pump track is part of a bigger redevelopment of Bexley Reserve, which will include a learn-to-ride cycle safety facility and a new playground.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
