Nestled on the edge of the historic town of Dromore, the stunning Dromore Park is a cherished green space that attracts visitors eager to explore its diverse wildlife, scenic riverside walks, and rich heritage. With the River Lagan flowing peacefully through natural woodland areas, the park is not only a haven for nature lovers but also a hub for community events, education, and recreation.
To enhance accessibility and safety within the park, DeckWright has supplied anti-slip Ekki decking for two key bridges, ensuring a durable and weather-resistant surface for visitors. Given the park’s popularity among walkers, anglers, and cyclists, the addition of anti-slip timber will provide greater confidence in all weather conditions, especially in areas prone to moisture and heavy footfall.
Why Ekki?
Ekki is a highly durable tropical hardwood, well known for its strength and resistance to decay. When combined with DeckWright’s proven anti-slip technology, it becomes an ideal choice for high-traffic public spaces, particularly those exposed to the elements. The anti-slip treatment ensures that visitors—whether they are strolling through the park, heading to the custom-built pump track, or exploring historic landmarks like the Pinnacle and Mill Weir—can do so with increased safety.
Enhancing a Historic and Ecological Gem
Dromore Park is more than just a recreational space; it serves as an important educational tool for local schools and hosts a variety of events throughout the year. The park’s Green Flag Award status highlights its exceptional management, environmental responsibility, and community involvement. With the breathtaking Dromore Viaduct as a focal point and a hand-crafted art installation showcasing the market town’s history, the park is an immersive blend of nature and heritage.
DeckWright is proud to contribute to the ongoing enhancement of this vital public space. By providing long-lasting, slip-resistant decking for the two bridges, we are ensuring that visitors of all ages can continue to enjoy the park’s many attractions safely and comfortably.
