Children's Playground, Marsh Green, Edenbridge

Description

Marsh Green playground is in a public open space located off Marsh Green Road. The current play area is limited in what it offers with only two pieces of equipment providing swings and a slide and has gone beyond its life span. The current marked play area is mostly grassed with the equipment sat on a mulch surface. Edenbridge Town Council is looking to redevelop the existing playground area, creating a new toddler and younger years play area. This will include the removal of the existing swings and slide, the installation of the new equipment, and the installation of appropriate safety surfacing. Project Brief: To refurbish and upgrade the play area at Marsh Green, to create an exciting play area which challenges children aged between 0-8. Play equipment should encourage inclusive play and allow for accessibility and sensory play. There are two items of play equipment which are outdated and will need to be removed to make way to create a modern, inclusive, and attractive play area for the range of children's ages and abilities. There is some flexibility in adjusting the play area boundary. The facilities will provide a much-needed alternative play area for families in Marsh Green and Edenbridge, and for children who attend the pre-school nearby. Total budget range is up to a maximum of £70,000. Tender documents are available upon request.
