The Middlefield Greenspace and Regeneration Project, run by the Aberdeen City Council with support from the Green Infrastructure Fund, aims to create a public space that offers a host of social and environmental improvements through urban regeneration.

The intention of the project is to reduce the risk of flooding through stormwater infrastructure improvements. This is supplemented with improved accessibility of the park, a range of formal and informal play opportunities, exercise trails (for a range of abilities), play areas, short grass areas, and picnic areas. Outdoor learning in nature is encouraged with wildflower areas, wetland planting and ponds.

The project was developed in consultation with the community between 2014 and 2016 and work was completed in November 2019.
