Parks management and development plans

Salisbury District Council has just started a series of reviews of the parks, major open spaces and parks services provided in Salisbury. We are looking at what is currently provided for the community, whether it meets public expectations and how services can be improved and developed for the future.

View of Victoria Park

Victoria Park

Public consultation will play a major role in each review and should give park users and city residents the opportunity to say how Salisbury’s parks are managed and enhanced for the future.

Feedback from the consultation, along with other information, will be used to draw up individual management plans for the city’s parks and green spaces.

We are reviewing the following sites:

Starting with Victoria Park, we will be sending out questionnaires to nearby residents and surveying park users in person.
