Thanks to a joint effort between Leisure and Communites Dept of Dundee City Council and The good chaps at Dundee Fire and Rescue; at LIGHTING PILOTINITIATIVE will be conductedin Dudhopeskatepark.
As long as they can get decent access to suitable spots in the park, they will set up a generator and some portable floodlights for 2 hours:
between 6:30 -8:30 on 23 and 30th September, and 7th and 14th October
They will also probably do this for the MUGA (fenced fitbathing) up the top o’ the park.
This is to see how the usage-value works later during darker evenings.
So if the weather is good; Uncle Boring-Old-Fart Speccy sez:
SHOW UP,
BE COOL
(show the community workers / police etc that the skatepark-users are notthe onesthey should be watching for illicit activity eh?!?!)
BRING SOME MORE SKATERS.
(show them this is a WANTED thing and that permanent lights would be really appreciated.)
rock on
