PR-22184 Paterson Park Playground upgrade

We’re planning to make exciting improvements to the Paterson Park Playground in Ngaaruawaahia.  The purpose of Neighbourhood playgrounds is to provide play amenities to the local neighbourhood serving children living in the immediate neighbourhood. 

Project update

October 2024 - The installation of the playground equipment is complete. The playground surfacing will be installed this week and final sign off of the playground will take place on Wednesday.

Thank you to our Ngaaruawaahia whaanau for more than 650 responses to our Paterson Park Playground upgrade survey.  With Option 2 being the preferred option and selected by the community, we are getting the plan priced by two local contractors. Our aim is to award the contract at the beginning of June with an aim to start works end of July 2024.

Option 2 was clearly the favourite - with a 507 to 144 majority. View the plan here.
