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

November 2024 - The new playground is complete and work on the 3x3 court is in progress, due to be completed by the end of November.

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.
