Works will soon commence on the installation of a basketball half-court at Lake Apex in Gatton.
Lockyer Valley Regional Council Facilities Portfolio Councillor Anthony Wilson said this was another way Council demonstrated its commitment to providing parks, sporting fields, and recreation areas with facilities throughout the Lockyer Valley.
“We’re thrilled to provide another recreational activity resource for the community in Gatton to enjoy.
“There is no doubt three-a-side basketball is an increasingly popular sport and weather permitting, works will begin next month.
“The $160,000 project will feature several unique features, including a reversable tower that can be turned to suit both basketball and netball players.
“The paint solution is also commercial grade, ensuring the ultimate grip for high performance playing,” Cr Wilson said.
Set to be located adjacent to the carpark at the skatepark, the half-court is expected to be completed in early April and will provide an extra feature for young people and families.
