SINN Féin Councillor Mickey Cooper has welcomed the news today that Derry City Council has appointed Woodvale Construction to deliver the Regeneration of Brooke Park.
The stunning makeover of a park close to the hearts of so many people in the city will cost £5.6M
New facilities include a Play Garden and Gwyn’s Pavilion, a new synthetic pitch, Horticulture Training Centre and Contact Sports Centre, as well as new outdoor furniture and the restoration of historic park features including the pond.
The work is expected to take 15 months, and will be completed by the summer of 2016.
Councillor Mickey Cooper told us: “I am delighted that Derry City Council has appointed contractors to carry out the £5.6 regeneration of Brooke Park, with work expected to begin within weeks.
” The investment in Brooke Park will include much needed sport facilities and an upgrade to the entire park including the reinstatement of the pond which will bring this famous green space back to life and be right in the heart of the local community.
“Also included are new facilities such as a state of the art play park for children which is badly needed for the area.”
