CityParks Rangers ensure everyone enjoys our public open spaces safely. The Rangers work alongside volunteers, local preservation and horticultural groups to maintain our parks and countryside.
What CityParks Rangers do
CityParks Rangers:
- work closely with CityParks Gardeners to help keep a close watch over all the public open spaces in our city
- encourage appropriate behaviour, mutual co-operation and consideration from all groups using parks and, if necessary, take enforcement action
- patrol playgrounds, recreation areas and paths, including footpaths and cycle tracks
- provide a reassuring presence in our parks to encourage a sense of security
- provide information, education and interpretation, including events
- undertake habitat protection, including practical conservation tasks and surveys
- involve local community groups, particularly in the active conservation of our parks
If you see a park ranger in your local park or open space, please go and say hello!
