Ipswich's Stoke Bridge Skatepark will close from 12 October for two days for urgent specialist repairs.
Ipswich Borough Council has announced that Stoke Bridge Skatepark will close from Monday, 12 October for two days for urgent specialist repairs. The park features a half pipe, quarter pipe and other skateboarding obstacles.
A spokesman for the council said: 'The work has been welcomed by the local skate community, and we appreciate everyone's patience while these improvements are completed.' The skatepark is located in the centre of Ipswich and is more than 20 years old.
The park underwent a revamp in 2022, during which two new features were added. These obstacles had previously featured in a pop-up skatepark on The Strand in Westminster, London, before being relocated to Ipswich.
