Update: May 2022

The City Skate Park, despite COVID tribulations, is taking shape. Here are some photos which highlight the intricacies of concreting curved structures. Great work by the contractor and to the project team in the delivery of this project!!!


More shots of the work that is currently underway.



Update: April 2022

Progress on the City Skate Park is being made...albeit slowly - see below:

Unfortunately, the spread of Covid 19 across the nation and associated quarantine requirements has led to a reduction in available resources. This has affected the head contractor onsite and key suppliers providing concrete, steel and labour resources. This has inevitably delayed the completion of works and the official opening date.

The contractor has installed the Olympic standard lighting which helps mitigate the delays by working longer hours to complete the project.

Please visit us again soon for further updates.

Update: January 2022

Works at the new City Skate Park are progressing steadily, despite some less than desirable weather conditions leading into Christmas. The civil works are now complete and a lot of footings have been poured in preparation for the skate surface. Over the next two months there will be a continuous flow of concrete occurring in conjunction with the above Olympic standard lighting being installed.’

City Skate Park: Update September 2021

The City of Adelaide has been working to deliver an exemplary skate facility in the heart of the city; however, some unavoidable technical delays have impacted on the project completion date. These unavoidable delays have allowed further testing and optimisation of the remaining works. We understand this has been disappointing, but are confident the final outcome will be worth the wait.

We have done some good work with the contractors for stage one that has allowed us to optimise the earthworks and move into stage two with Convic for the remainder of the build. Convic are a trusted skate park designer and specialist contractor. As the designer they have been working closely with us from the concept stage. Stage two construction is scheduled to begin in early October 2021.

The skate park is on track for completion in early 2022. Please refer to this page for future updates.
