"It's about getting the best bang for your buck": Exploring local councils' perceptions about providing exercise infrastructure in public parks.

CONCLUSIONS: Councils are motivated to support active communities. They would benefit from better access to information about park usage, strategies for marketing healthy-living initiatives, and data about the economic benefits of parks. SO WHAT?: The current study explores the perspectives of LGA professional 'gatekeepers,' who develop and maintain public physical activity facilities. Their insights are essential to better understanding the practicalities of delivering desirable urban green spaces for a physically active community.
