A new children’s play area, accessible for wheelchairs and buggies, is set to open in Swinton next month.
The play area on Campbell Road will feature climbing frames, slides, play castles, roundabouts, an aerial runway, an activity trail, a tyre swing and traditional swings.
Subject to the completion of flooring, the park is set to open in April.
The play area is part of the planning agreement for the Bellway Homes development and has been funded by developer, through a commitment to give back to the community.
Councillor Barbara Bentham, Lead Member for Environment, Neighbourhoods and Community Safety said: “This will be a great new facility for young children in the local area and I’m looking forward to seeing it in use. It’s fantastic to have another addition to our collection of parks and play areas across the city.”
Councillor Jim Cammell, Lead Member for Children’s and Young People’s Services and ward councillor said: “I’m really pleased to see this new space for children to enjoy.
“It’s important for young children to stay active and get plenty of fresh air and this new play area has a whole range of equipment to keep them busy. I’m sure it will be well used by local children and those who come via the Swinton Greenway.”
