The much-anticipated plan is to create an attractive, functional and well-utilised sports and recreation park which caters for the growth in the northern suburbs. With priorities including sports fields that are usable all year-round, creating space for informal recreation, and improving pedestrian access.
The next step in the project involves working with local communities, mana whenua and clubs to improve the sports and recreation facilities at Grenada North Park, reflecting the needs of the community, making it more sustainable, and fit for the future.
Feedback to help shape concept plans for the park include:
- new artificial sports field
- refurbishment of other fields
- entrance upgrades
- playground renewal
- walking and biking tracks
- furniture and other amenities.
Funding was allocated in Wellington City Council’s 2021-31 Long-term Plan, providing $13.2 million over three years from 2024.
