The idea of refurbishing the BMX track was initiated by the Forbes Shire Council's Youth Council. Forbes Rotary and Forbes Shire Council will be working in partnership to undertake the project.
Members of Forbes Shire Council and Forbes Rotary visited the BMX site last Thursday to assess the viability of the track and what needs to be done. Currently, there is no definitive timescale for refurbishment works, but the next steps in the plan include community consultation sessions.
Forbes Shire Council's John Zannes said that they identified that there was a need for this project to be put into action and that outdoor exercise is a priority for youth.
Forbes Shire Council General Manager Steve Loane said community input and involvement will be included in a community consultation session.
The date and format for the community consultation session is yet to be decided, but details will be up on the Forbes Shire Council's website when finalised.
