PUMP TRACK UPDATE - April 2019

The concept design for Roxby Downs’ multipurpose pump track has been finalised and approved by the Roxby Downs Sport and Recreation Forum.

The pump track now moves to the detailed design phase of technical and civil works specifications and construction methods. This will be completed by The Trail Collective. Once this has been received and approved by the Sport and Recreation Forum, a project control group will commence meeting to organise the construction of the project. The project will also be uploaded onto the Australian Sports Foundation website for local contractors to pledge their support.

What is a concept design?These drawings represent the vision for the pump track development on a conceptual level. They are a preliminary design which is subject to change, a forecast of the development potential, and a road map to assist in accomplishing the vision from concept to reality.

Below are three images of the concept design for Roxby Downs' multipurpose pump track.
