ADT is supporting a working group looking to develop a brand-new skatepark in the town. The group has purchased equipment and is currently conducting a public consultation on which of two potential sites in Alyth would be the best location.
Total funding for this first phase is £40k for site preparation and purchase of equipment and installations. Two thirds of the money is coming from the Scottish Government’s Community Led Local Development Fund and the remainder from ADT.
