Skatepark Shutdown for Big Sewage Upgrade
Description
A beloved skatepark in St. George could be closed for up to three years as Wessex Water installs critical sewage infrastructure to protect local rivers — a move that’s part of a larger environmental cleanup effort. While the timeline remains uncertain, the closure hits hard for families who rely on the park for kids’ confidence, coordination, and fun — with few other options nearby. Upgrades planned for the skatepark are on hold, but there’s silver lining: the council has secured $800,000 from a green spaces fund to rebuild the park even better once work is done. Local officials are pushing to hold Wessex Water accountable to ensure the community gets the best possible outcome.
