New pump track opens in Buderim

The Sunshine Coast’s newest pump track is open and ready for action this weekend.

The track at Forestwood Drive Park, Buderim promises to be an exciting recreational asset for the young, and young at heart.

Sunshine Coast Council finished constructing the facility in mid-June after some delays due to wet weather.

Sunshine Coast Council Division 7 Councillor Ted Hungerford said this was great news for the community.

“The completion of the pump track is a testament to our commitment to providing diverse and engaging recreational opportunities for our residents and visitors,’’ Cr Hungerford said.

“It’s a fantastic space where families and friends can come together, stay active and enjoy the outdoors.

“The track design has a focus on beginner and intermediate local riders, and I know it will be popular with young families and kids of all ages.

“We are proud to offer a space that encourages physical activity and fosters a sense of community.”
