Bicester council: Add floodlights to the Bicester, Garth Park Skate-park

The Issue

To provide skateboarder's and BMX riders with light. As in the winter time when it starts to get dark earlier. More of the youth that use the skate-park cannot stay out doing there hobbies for as long as they would like to with the winter nights drawing in. Adding floodlights to the Bicester skate-park would cause less vandalism to the town e.g the new Sainsbury's benches being scratched, this is due to the Sainsbury's benches being lit up and the skate-park being dark. Many other outdoor facilities such as tennis courts, football courts and astros are all lit up with floodlights so why shouldn't the skate-park be? Overall we think that this would be a great improvement to the Bicester skate-park and the town.
