2021 Feedback

The key insights we received from the 2021 Hill survey are as follows:

Increase in technical options and maintenance

• Building bigger jumps, increasing technical challenges and providing greater length of trails is important as well as maintenance of the tracks.

Engagement and creativity

• Ongoing involvement in creating, building and maintaining jumps and trails from the community provides social engagement, private and a creative result.

Greater variety

• Increasing the variety of trails and jumps to cater for different skill levels.

All of the information gathered from the 2021 survey responses will be used to assist in this current project. As we are gathering information for the Waurn Ponds and Stead Park sites we wanted to offer another opportunity to provide feedback for The Hill.
