Playground Elements Survey

In March 2020, the Town conducted a survey on possible playground elements. Thank you to everyone who provided their input regarding preferred playground elements. Feedback gathered was used as a guide in the equipment selection proposed by playground suppliers.

Construction

Construction of the new Rathdown Park playground started mid-September 2020 and was completed in early October 2020.
