Waterford City and County Council is inviting public feedback on the proposal to extend and redevelop the existing playground in the seaside town of Tramore
The deadline is approaching for stakeholders and members of the public to make submissions in relation to the proposed redevelopment of the playground at the Promenade in Tramore.
The local authority is proposing to remove and replace existing end of life equipment with high-quality timber structures for use by children aged between 5 and 12.
It is also proposed to provide an additional play space for younger children, aged 2 – 5, to the South of the existing playground.
