Future Plans
Play Area
Barratt Homes have donated some play equipment from the Osprey Village development. They donated the equipment and installed it free of charge to the Ury Riverside Park.
This will hopefully be the first part of a larger all abilities play area we are hoping to create in the park when funding allows. Keep an eye on this website and our Facebook page for updates.
Portstown Bridge
The new bridge connecting the new Portsdown housing development to the Park was installed in July 2023. The path connecting the bridge to the rest of the park is due to be constructed during 2024, after the ground nesting bird breeding season, with national sustainable travel grant funding through Aberdeenshire Council. This bridge is part of the planning requirements of the new housing development and was delivered by the builders Malcolm Allan. This will also form part of the Meldrum Megway path from Oldmeldrum to Inverurie.
Queens Green Canopy
As part of HM The Queens Platinum Jublilee celebrations we will be supporting the Queens Green Canopy project by planting a copse of native edible fruit trees in the park. These were planted in the Autumn of 2022.
