Lethbridge Skate Park Upgrade Concept Designs

Council invites residents to view and share their feedback on the proposed Lethbridge Skate Park Upgrade concept designs.

Located at the Lethbridge Active Youth Space, the concept designs reflect community input gathered in February this year. Features in the concept designs include diverse banks, ramps, open street elements, refuge areas, shade structures with seating and more.

Community members can provide feedback on the concept designs by attending an in-person workshop on Wednesday 30 April from 5 to 6pm at the

Lethbridge Recreation Reserve, 8 Stephenson Street, Lethbridge.

Feedback on the concept designs is invited from Wednesday 23 April to 5pm, Wednesday 7 May 2025, and can be completed online at goldenplains.vic.gov.au/consultations

Following the consultation period, final concept plans will be utilised to inform and develop detailed designs. These designs will then be used to seek funding support and plan for future project delivery.
