Improvements to Salterns play area

Fareham Borough Council are asking residents to tell us how they would like Salterns play area to be improved.

The play area is set to be upgraded as part of the Council’s five-year improvement programme for play areas across the borough.

Users of the play area are being asked to choose which new items of equipment they would like to see installed in the empty space within the play area, which could be a Roundabout, Buddy board rocker, Boat springies or a See-saw. The existing multi-climbing unit will stay but will have a fresh lick of paint. People can also give their comments and ideas as to how else they would like to see the play area improved.

Votes can be casted at www.fareham.gov.uk/consultations between Monday 16 November – Monday 14 December.

Works to the play area is expected to begin in autumn 2021.

Executive Member for Leisure and Community, Cllr Sue Bell, said: “Salterns play area is well used by residents and visitors to the coast. We would like to add some additional equipment to increase the play offer and we are keen to hear from children and their families as to what equipment they would most like to see installed.”
