Cropton Park play equipment

John Fareham and John Abbott report that orders have been placed for the new play and other equipment for Cropton Park and that installation work began early in September. A special meeting of Wyke Area Committee early in August approved the funding for this work to take place. Since then the officers have been talking to the companies that will be doing the work and they said work would commence on the 9th and would take approximately two weeks. This we were most impressed with as the fourth phase of refurbishing Cropton Park could turn out to have taken only a little over a month – a remarkable turn of speed in local government terms.
