Posted on by VS

This is our third and final set of design visualisations (for the time being). You can see our first set of

designs HERE; and our second set of designs HERE. The Third Design features on-site car parking for

users of the facility and pubic services. Once again, these are only design ideas and in no way intended

to represent the final scheme design. Everyone has been encouraged to contribute ideas or designs for

consideration by the council and committee. If you visit our two earlier skatepark articles you will be able to find details on who to contact for more info.

Thanks for reading! – VS

“The Town Council has confirmed that a new state-of-the-art facility will be built by specialists Canvas, and that the town’s users will have the opportunity to play their part in its design and delivery.” – MyWelshpool.

“The bottom line is that we can expect to have a really good skatepark here in Welshpool by the end of next year (2024) at the latest,” – Welshpool Cllr, N.Howells, Town Mayor.

“The Town Council has struggled to find a company willing to take on the work, but a site meeting with Canvas has resulted in the specialist bespoke Skatepark designers and installers, getting the job. The work will start soon, with a detailed consultation process to be carried out over the coming months with the skaters and potential skaters, leading to drafts and final design selection.” – MyWelshpool.

So without further ado, please check out our second conceptual scheme for Y-Trallwng Skatepark. Nb. Once again these are un-official design concepts, which have been generated in-house at ValleySideDistro. They are not to be mistaken for any content generated by Canvas or P.C.C. – Valleyside.

Words by Chris Smith…

The initial motivation behind this project was to create a frame that is: A) Robust enough for burly modern day street and ramp riding with; B) Sensible angles and geometry for nose manuals, regular manuals, grinds, airs and; C) To be visually appealing.
