Windmill Skate Park Project

You need to have JavaScript enabled to view this map

The project would build a new skate park in the Hele area of Torquay following a two-year campaign by local young people. The area’s current skate park is well used and is unusable at certain times of the year due to water being retained on the equipment’s surfaces.

This would be ideal for the local community as there is very little in the local vicinity to provide entertainment for the local kids. A lot of people in my workplace have been talking about it and said that it would be more than welcomed.
