Help shape new pump track for popular park

Council is committed to providing high quality open space that supports active and healthy communities.

After engaging with the community in 2016, 2022 and 2023, Council finalised the Landscape Plan for Lions and Norrie Job Park, Coolum.

Sunshine Coast Council Division 9 Councillor Maria Suarez said one of the standout ideas from the landscape plan, and from her consultation with students at Coolum State Primary School and Coolum State High School, was a pump track for the park.

“We’ve drafted a concept plan for the pump track, which is going to be such a fantastic addition to Lions and Norrie Job Park for our community to enjoy,” Cr Suarez said.

“We need your insights to finalise the concept plan.

“The pump track will also mesh perfectly with the new basketball half court, making sure there’s plenty of action-packed fun for our young people.

“This is a great opportunity to help shape our local recreation areas, and another example of how we are connecting and engaging with our communities to build a better future for everyone.

What makes a track a pump track?

It is a track where you generate momentum on your bike by up and down body movements, instead of pedalling or pushing.

Pump tracks cater to all members of the community, creating a space that unites people from diverse backgrounds.
