Work is currently underway on the Weston under Wetherley play area on Sabin Drive, with new and refurbished play equipment soon to be ready for families to enjoy during the summer holidays.

The play area will feature a new aerial slide, swings, multi-play units, and a new sparkling butterfly panel, complemented with some of the existing play equipment.

The toddler play area will also have new rubber safety surfacing.

Construction is expected to be completed by the week of 7 August, providing families in the village with a brand-new play facility for the summer holidays.

Cllr Will Roberts, portfolio holder for neighbourhood, said: "It's so important for our villages to have modern, exciting facilities within walking distance, so it's wonderful to see this play area being developed with new and existing equipment that will appeal to all ages.

"I look forward to seeing it open this summer."

The play area will be closed during construction, including the equipment that is currently in place.

The new pathways to be installed around the play area will be completed after the school holidays to minimise any further disruption.
