PHEASANT WOOD CIRCUIT PRESENTS PLANS FOR WAKEFIELD PARK
Early in April I attended the Goulburn Chamber of Commerce & Industry hosted the Shelley Brothers, Cameron, Steve and Greg to hear about their vision for Wakefield Park in relation to the Goulburn Business Community.
The acquisition of Wakefield Park Raceway by an established track operator in the region, such as Pheasant Wood Circuit will breathe new life into the raceway and provide a sustainable and commercially viable solution to the circuit, especially whilst addressing the noise concerns that led to its closure.
We heard their plans and priorities, number one being noise control which will require a new track layout and significant works to keep the facility in the best shape possible. Steve also spoke about the plans for the park to include a business precinct and ancillary ideas around tourism and hospitality such as a restaurant and motorsport museum.
I am so pleased that their top priority is listening and respecting the concerns of local residents to ensure that the rejuvenation and reopening of Wakefield Park Raceway will be done in a manner that is respectful and beneficial to the community.
