- Installing drainage systems, including subsoil drains around the skatepark bowl and retaining walls.
- Lighting and electrical installations to brighten up the area.
- Constructing concrete structures like bowls, banks, ledges, flats, edgewalls, stairs, rails, and more.

- Creating concrete bench seating for relaxation.
- Adding furniture and play equipment such as rope walks, climbing towers, slides, tread chimes, swings, a flying fox, zigzag climbers, BBQs, drink fountains, picnic tables and chairs, bike racks, and more.
- Installing fitness equipment like cycle seats, aerobic walkers, shoulder presses, and more.
- Erecting shade shelters for comfort.
