Gym equipment being removed from Ballyclare's Sixmilewater River Park

The outdoor gym equipment in Ballyclare’s Sixmilewater River Park is being removed, it’s been confirmed.

Equipment in two locations in the popular park has been cordoned off by metal fencing for several weeks.

Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council confirmed the equipment is programmed for complete removal due to its age and condition.

"The equipment will be removed in the coming weeks,” a spokesperson said.

"The council is currently exploring potential funding opportunities for new equipment, as the installation of outdoor gym equipment was previously part-funded by external bodies.”
