Public input sought on new playground

The Town of Riverview is asking the public for its views on a proposed new playground at Ridgeway Park, according to the Times and Transcript.

Conceptual drawings are done now and can be viewed on the town’s website  www.townofriverview.ca. . You can look them over and email your comments to info@town of riverview.ca  (subject line Ridgeway Park Playground).

The park will include two main play structures…one for tots aged 2-5 years and one for kids 5-12 years. There’ll be a trail network and other amenities.
