Maidstone Max set to reopen in May
The city council is hoping to open Maidstone Max. Bad weather has delayed progress.
It will feature a new double accessible toilet block near the young children’s play area, seating and picnic tables, shade elements, waste/recycling bins, lighting and security cameras.
Enlarged state-of-the-art skate park, new half basketball court, refurbished flying fox, and a pump track for younger/learner scooter and bike riders are also part of the design.
