Purpose

Hawke Road Park is part of the Hawke Road
housing redevelopment site, which includes a new play area and has
been approved via the Council’s Planning Process with
consultation with residents.
 
To enable the housing development works the
park must be closed and the existing play area removed, then as the
housing works are nearing completion the new play area will be
installed. Hawke Road Park will be temporarily closed to enable the
creation of a construction site and for housing
building works to take place, ensure the
health and safety for all users. The site is expected to be closed
until summer 2026.

Decision

To temporarily close Hawke Road Park until
summer 2026.
 
Reason:
To enable the creation of a construction site
for housing building works to take place.
