Consultation has concluded

In summer 2023, we engaged with local communities and users of Waterworks Park and Alexandra Park to develop a coherent, ambitious and co-designed vision for the future of both parks.

Vision: Alexandra Park and Waterworks Park will build on their unique natural and cultural significance to be cohesive places where biodiversity thrives, people from all communities are supported and prosper through leisure and recreational activities, and the parks becomes exemplar city green spaces for Belfast and Northern Ireland.

While the council has already agreed to fund reservoir safety works, we have submitted a funding application to PEACEPLUS for all of the environmental improvement works. These environmental improvements are subject to securing funding and the necessary statutory approvals including, for example, planning permission, building control and permission from the Department for Infrastructure.

Following our PEACEPLUS funding application, we will be applying for planning permission for the proposed works. We would appreciate if you could tell us what you think of the draft proposals.
