Heighington Parish Council is excited to announce upcoming improvements to the children’s play area at Station Road.

Following feedback from concerned residents, we will be installing fencing around the children’s play area. This will help to keep dogs out and make the space feel safer and more secure for those using it.

As previously shared with parishioners, we wanted to ensure our play area was accessible to all. We are therefore also installing an inclusive boat swing seat , which will replace one of the existing swings. In addition there will be a new path laid so that the boat swing is fully accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs.

Our contractor, Kompan, plans to start work on Tuesday 7th March and expects to take approximately two weeks. During that time, to ensure everyone’s safety, the children’s play area will be fenced off and will not be accessible.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and hope to see you back once the new improvements are complete.
