Beginning Monday, June 19, 2023, work will begin to replace the existing pea gravel playground surfaces at Peter Cameron Park and Bognor Community Park with engineered wood fiber.
During the Municipality’s annual playground inspection in 2022, third party inspectors identified pea gravel as being no longer recognized as a safe grounding material for playgrounds, and recommended that the Municipality replace existing pea gravel surfaces with engineered wood fiber.
This work will take approximately one week to complete (June 19, 2023, to June 23, 2023). During this time, the playground area at the Peter Cameron and Bognor Community Parks will be inaccessible. Service Disruption Notices have been posted in the area and are available at www.meaford.ca/PlaygroundSurfaceReplacement. Other local playgrounds can be found by visiting www.meaford.ca/Parks.
This project was approved as part of the Municipality of Meaford’s 2023 Capital Projects. For information on other Capital Projects in 2023, please visit www.meaford.ca/CapitalProjects.
