Cascades Park renewal and upgrade project
Cascades Park in Victoria Point is due for an upgrade, identified in the Local Government Infrastructure Plan and categorised as a T2 High level park in Council's Open Space Strategy 2026.
Concept design now open for feedback
Feedback from the pre-design workshops in November 2025 included general agreement for the BMX area to become a pump track and for a street plaza style to be adopted for the skatepark. External specialist design consultants Convic have now developed a concept design for a proposed 350m2 asphalt pump track complemented by a 300m2 street-style skate path.
Design workshops for the skatepark and pump track

The park renewal and upgrade project considers the use, functional requirements and integration of the recreation activities including BMX track and skatepark, new bike racks, pedestrian connectivity, paint and repair of the rotunda and upgrades to park furniture such as shelters, barbecues and seating.
In 2023, project planning commenced, with funding for the design of the youth spaces adopted in Council's 2025-2026 Budget.
In November 2024, due to ongoing significant water loss (losing 6000L of water/day despite numerous fixes) and to support Council’s sustainability and environmental standards, water to the water-feature was turned off, however the ‘feature’ component remains within the garden beds. At this time, the park name was changed from 'Cascades Gardens' to Cascades Park.
Now in the next phase, the project is in concept design for the pump track and skatepark areas.
External skatepark design consultants Convic in collaboration with BMX design consultants Trailworx have been engaged to facilitate two workshops with the community for feedback on the concept design for the proposed upgraded facilities.
Participation is free of charge and everyone with an interest in the park is welcome to attend by clicking on 'Register for a workshop' button below or emailing civicandopenspace@redland.qld.gov.au
