Asking for your feedback on the play proposals
As the final phase of Garland Park nears, we want to get your feedback on the play proposals available to ensure we deliver a result you are happy with. We have been hard at work designing play experiences which are sensitive to the surrounding context, and considerate of neighbouring properties.
The proximity of play equipment to neighbouring properties is a key consideration, with attention paid to sight lines and potential for noise disturbance.
We have considered the existing play equipment in Garland Park and have selected a variety of accessible, inclusive, and multisensory pieces accordingly to ensure there are play opportunities for visitors of all ages and abilities, with particular focus on providing better younger years play.
