Plans for accessibility upgrades at Niagara Park Stadium are underway, with Central Coast Council calling for community input.
The planned upgrades will include formalising the carpark, a new driveway and pathway to access the facility and a refresh to the building’s façade to encourage patronage.
Council Administrator, Rik Hart, said the community is invited to view the proposals and concepts online and share their input.
“Niagara Park Stadium is a key community asset that caters for a range of users in our community and across the state, including sporting events for people with a disability,” Hart said.
“Improving the accessibility and safety to access the popular facility will benefit everyone – visitors, competitors and party-goers alike.”
The improvements have been made possible thanks to an $850,000 grant from Round Four of the Stronger Country Community Fund.
Parliamentary Secretary for the Central Coast, Adam Crouch, said the State Government was pleased to be able to support the upgrades with funding.
“Niagara Park Stadium is a key asset in our region, providing a multi-sport venue for all to enjoy,” he said.
“Now is the time for our community to have their say on the accessibility improvements and provide Central Coast Council with their feedback on this fantastic facility.”
Community input is welcome until November 8 at yourvoiceourcoast.com/niagarapark.
