Page last reviewed 06 Oct 2026

Project description

Work is underway on the draft ACT Skate Strategy.

The ACT Government has developed a Draft Strategy in collaboration with skating stakeholders, community groups, industry experts and government partners.

The aim of the finalised ACT Skate Strategy will be to deliver a strong framework, clear objectives, practical actions and a pathway for ensuring that skating in the ACT continues to grow in a way that is inclusive, sustainable, strengthens community connection and supports creative expression and wellbeing.

The strategy will also support promotion of skate culture in the ACT as well as planning, designing, managing and operating skate infrastructure across the Territory.
