The multiple use of racecourses
1979
Adam, John P.
The aim of my research has been to discover how intensively racecourses are being used for general recreation. I believe that a more intensive use on non-race days would be to the benefit of the public and to the controlling authorities of the racecourses. Courses are located throughout the country in most of our towns and cities and usually have easy access to them. Their recreational development could be made to parallel other developments such as the community use of schools. These are another example of high cost and low use resource. Changes are occuring at present in the use being made of racecourses. By studying overseas examples of their multiple use, and by considering the associated benefits and problems, this dissertation will examine how far these changes have developed in New Zealand and propose ideas for continuing development.
