Overview

We are launching a public consultation on the proposals to replace the Freespace skate park at Stoneycroft Rise, Chandlers Ford after it previously suffered severe vandalism that resulted in the majority of the ramps being removed.

We now have some exciting new designs and would welcome comments from the local community on these proposals.  We will also be replacing the existing riding surface with a new ‘close grained’ tar-mac surface for maximum user enjoyment of the new ramps.

Your thoughts and views on how best to implement new wheeled sports improvements at Freespace will help us to ensure we install the ramps that are preferred by the local community.

Come along and meet the skatepark builders, Fearless Ramps, on Wednesday 8 March (full details below) where you can share your views on the proposals. We will record any responses and designs may be adjusted based on feedback. Fearless Ramps will give detailed explanations of how the designs can be adjusted to reflect the community’s views.

There will also be a session for under 18s only on Tuesday 14 March (6pm-8:30pm) at Energy Youth Centre, 79 Leigh Road, Eastleigh.
