Aramoho's Matipo Park remains closed to the public as the Whanganui District Council continues to work on safety issues.
The park, which is on Brunswick Rd and backs on to the Westmere Walkway, was popular with walkers, mountain bikers and as a dog exercise area.
However, the park was closed in 2017 when a structural inspection of the bridge, which needs to be crossed to access the park from the road, found that it was not safe, senior parks manager Wendy Bainbridge said.
"Before the issue of the unsafe bridge is addressed, a KiwiRail-approved level crossing needs to be installed over the railway lines," Bainbridge said.
"We have engaged a consultant who is working through the design process."
