Wakefield Skatepark Renovation Project

Wakefield Park skate park was built in April 2004. The average lifespan for a wooden skate park at that time was 15 years. The skatepark has been repaired several times, but due to the age and make-up of the facility, it is no longer feasible to prolong the use of the original equipment.

Announcement

We are excited to announce a facelift coming soon to the Wakefield Skatepark! The design of the park is the result of a collaborative effort between local input and professional designers and caters to all skill levels of skateboarders, BMX riders, and other wheeled athletes. The new park will feature a competition-style bowl, multi-level jump line, hips galore, mini-ramp, spine, a-frame, ledges, euro, and much more.

Wakefield Park skate park was built in April 2004. The average lifespan for a wooden skate park at that time was 15 years.  The skatepark has been repaired several times, but due to the age and make-up of the facility, it is no longer feasible to prolong the use of the original equipment.

A phased renovation of the skate park is envisioned, to include a new layout, demolition of the unsalvageable equipment, and installation of new equipment. The project goal is to create an updated design that incorporates newer styles of obstacles and features that are found in today’s typical skateparks.
