New facilities planned at Noble's Park

A list is being drawn up for a five-year plan of improvements at Noble's Park, and Douglas Borough Council is inviting suggestions from anybody who would like to contribute.

Initial ideas include go-karting, exercising equipment, a boating pool and the creation of wetlands.

Chairman of Leisure Services Stephen Pitts says the aim is to increase the use of a valuable asset by making it a more attractive place to go.

And, despite the current economic climate, he is confident at least some of the facilities will be provided (play audio file):
