On October 17, 2020, the expansion of the Kerzers skatepark under the highway viaduct was inaugurated. The desire to expand the skatepark, built about ten years ago, was first expressed in an Engage survey in spring 2019. With the support of the youth work and municipality of Kerzers, and in cooperation with Vertical Technik AG, the project was developed and the new skate facilities were built.
The young initiators were involved in the project throughout the entire development process. Initially, their wishes and ideas were discussed and developed with Paul Heuberger, CEO of Vertical Technik AG, in a design workshop in Frenkendorf. Afterwards, the young people were allowed to visit the production hall. The final step was their assistance in assembling the facility on site during two working days.
Thanks to the expansion of the skatepark, various new tricks and lines are now possible. We wish the young people a lot of fun on the expanded facility and sincerely thank the youth work and municipality of Kerzers for the great cooperation.
