The final landscaping plans are being drawn up incorporate the Burwood Resource Recovery Park into Bottle Lake Forest Park by early 2022. The Burwood Resource Recovery Park was established after the earthquakes to sort through construction and demolition waste from across Christchurch. Much of the waste has now been recycled but some could not be re-used and remains at the site. In the meantime, the majority of the Burwood Resource Recovery Park is being prepared for its transition to a recreation site.
