As people will be aware, an area in the north of Oxhey Park is currently being used as the site compound for the contracts working on the new road to Watford General Hospital. At the present time, the works are running to schedule, which means the road should be completed by the autumn and the contractors will then leave the site in early 2017.
Given this, the council feels it is a good time to consider the future use of this area of the Park and to see if there is potential to use it to provide additional facilities and activities in the Park. A number of suggestions have come forward including facilities for Park users such as a café and public conveniences as well as additional sporting and leisure activities such as cycling, BMX and skateboarding.
These have been considered over the last few months and in February, the council is looking to start engaging with the local community on what could be achieved in this area.
If you are interested in being part of the engagement, please contact; Kathryn Robson at Watford Borough Council on kathryn.robson@watford.gov.uk
