Progress on Tūrangitukua Park sports facility

Livingstone Building – the team doing the mahi at Tūrangitukua Park – has been dealing with four seasons in a day recently but is still making great progress on the new sports facility project.

The roof is now on and we are hoping to have all exterior doors and windows in before Christmas, with the interior finishing and fit out to follow in the new year.

The team is working hard to ensure the facility is open for the start of the 2023 winter sports season. The really exciting part is that local artists Te Maari and Mikaere Gardiner and carver Te Ururangi Rowe have been engaged to complete cultural elements of the design.

This will give the building real character and make it something unique to our local community, so thanks to them and to landowners Ngāti Tūrangitukua who are partnering with Council on this project.

We’re also upgrading the perimeter fencing and will be installing new floodlights around the training and number one fields early next year, so watch this space folks, good things are coming!
