The recreation ground is described as an “energetic hub for sports and socialising” on the Chandler’s Ford Parish Council website.
It boasts a halfpipe skate ramp, a fully enclosed hard-surface basketball court and five-a-side goals.
General maintenance repairs are due to start on the park’s skate ramp on Monday and are expected to take five days to complete.
