There have been fears that the popular park in Larne could be closed for up to a year while a £6 million improvement scheme takes place
Larne residents have raised concerns that a popular park could be closed for up to a year while a multi-million pound improvement scheme takes place.
They have said that the park is hugely important to the community in the town, with it being somewhere people are able to meet and socialise while spending time in nature. "There are many people who regularly use the park to exercise and there is a lot of conern about how the community will be impacted if the park is going to have to close for an entire year.
It has said that it is looking at a range of options that will be put out for consultation within the community and will aim to deliver these in a cost effective and least disruptive way. "This will not only enhance the park itself but it will also benefit the surrounding area and provide an economic boost for businesses.
"We are considering a range of options and these will then be put to the community for consultation and feedback before a way forward is agreed.
