Highland Council to make £100,000 upgrades to play parks
- Published
Highland Council is set to make improvements to a number of children's playparks across the Black Isle and Cromarty Firth areas.
A total of just over £100,00 has been awarded to improve play equipment and safety surfacing.
Playparks in Alness, Invergordon, Evanton, Munlochy, Cromarty, Culbokie, Rosemarkie and Fortrose are set to benefit.
The council said these sites were chosen following local feedback and condition surveys.
Money for the upgrade has been allocated through the local authority's Capital Programme, as well as other key sources including the Scottish government play park renewal fund.
Improvements will include the installation of new swings, seesaws and ziplines in some of the parks, and the creation of a sensory garden in Evanton.
