Shire of Carnarvon celebrates opening of new pump track, first stage of youth precinct revitalisation project

Carnarvon skaters, bike riders and youth are doing flips over the town’s newly opened pump track.

The facility, which is a key part of the council’s Lotterywest-funded youth precinct revitalisation project, had a successful soft opening on October 24.

Families and young people gathered at the pump track to try out the new facility, with the track set to become a hub of excitement and community activity.

Shire of Carnarvon president Eddie Smith said the dynamic track had proven to be a popular and inclusive space for all ages to come together, fostering a sense of community.

“The success of the pump track demonstrates the Shire’s commitment to creating a community that is flourishing and thriving. We are dedicated to providing spaces for our young people to enjoy and connect with one another,” he said.

The track is the first stage of the broader youth precinct revitalisation project, which will in future include shelters and upgrades to the basketball court, providing more recreational opportunities for the community.
