Barnsley plans outdoor activity park with skate area, social spaces
Plans for an outdoor activity park as part of a new youth centre in Barnsley have been submitted, featuring a skate park, parkour area, and cycling paths to enhance recreational opportunities for young people. The project, located at a former electricity depot, has already begun its first phase of construction, with landscaping and new tree plantings included in the plans. Originally proposed amenities like a clubhouse and café were removed due to low interest, instead opting for affordable food options for visitors. Despite some local opposition citing concerns about disturbances and benefits for older residents, Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council supports the initiative, highlighting its potential to foster a safe and engaging environment for youth activities. In a separate development, a new skateboarding and BMX arena is set to open in Guernsey, designed to cater to skaters of all levels with movable features for varied experiences. This reflects a broader trend in community investments aimed at enhancing recreational spaces for youth across various regions.
