A PUBLIC consultation will be launched next month on plans to transform green space off Hessle Road.
The Friends of Constable Street Field was set up last year to transform the former school area in Constable Street into allotments or a play area.
The move coincided with work to improve homes in the surrounding streets in a bid to enhance the area.
Work is already beginning to move children's play equipment from a neglected park in Wellsted Street to the field.
Other plans mooted include an adventure area for older children, a BMX bike track and an allotment area for growing food.
Lausanne Tranter, of the group, is now ready to find out exactly what people in the area want.
She said: "We have recently had a funding bid to carry out this consultation approved.
"We are hoping to hold events in the village hall or library in the Boulevard at the end of January or beginning of February.
"We have a number of plans but nothing is set in stone and we want to make sure we hear from everybody."
The site has been empty for years and has attracted fly- tipping and other antisocial behaviour.
Mrs Tranter said: "As well as the play area for younger children, we are looking at providing an adventure park for older kids and also a growing area so people can produce their own food.
"We are also considering a wildlife area as well and a BMX track."
Hull City Council has carried out work on homes in Wellsted and Gee streets by providing external solid wall insulation.
Homes in Carrington Street, Camden Street, Cadogan Street and Gordon Street have also received improvements.
Mrs Tranter said: "Our plans for the field coincide with the improvements that have already taken place on Wellsted Street and other areas.
"Everything seems to be coming together very well now.
"The compound on the field has gone and the builders have restored the area to its natural state.
"It is important to keep this green space as it is the main one in this area.
"Hopefully, this will bring the community together and it will be for everyone to enjoy.
"Hopefully, it will reduce antisocial behaviour in the area and give young people more to do.
"We welcome any new football or rounders teams to use the field.
"This is very much something the community should take ownership of."
