Poor fencing, drainage makes life a trip to the park for vandals but nightmare for users Ben Schutte is concerned at the lack of upkeep at James Browne Oval, Woy Woy . Picture: Peter Clark Source: NewsLocal BEN Schutte is just about fed up with the poor state of James Brown Oval at Woy Woy. He would like to see the erection of adequate fencing and suitable drainage works in and around the park. "As a frequent user I am continuously in touch with the state of the park," Mr Schutte said. Motorcycles, cars and 4WDs seem to always find a entry to the park and wreak havoc on the grounds. There are also issues with pedestrian access on blind corners and signage covered in graffiti. Mr Schutte said a thoroughfare which was flooded for days after significant rain was frequently impassable for prams or wheelchairs. "When anything happens the approach is to close the grounds to sporting activities or try a repair job," he said. I would like to see Gosford Council have a committee do a walk and talk through the park to see what simple and effective things can be done to ensure safe and economic future use of this park. It is a major pedestrian thoroughfare on the Woy Woy peninsula. Why does the council not see that the expense of a proper fence would be cheaper in the long run than repairs?
