Description

This scheme focuses on the replacement of existing play facilities in St. James's Park, Shaftesbury, alongside landscape works to ensure that new play features are integrated well within the park landscape. Landscape works will include path works (including the construction of a new pathway), turfing and installation of seats and benches.
The contractor will need to install new play equipment and site furniture. This will be sourced by the Town Council.

The start date is marked as 10th October, however this is negotiable and dependent on the delivery of the play equipment/site furniture.
