Modernization underway for playground nestled within Wild Park's wild boar compound
The "Wildpark - Linienkreuz" playground in Connewitz, Germany, is set for a significant transformation starting on Monday, September 1st. The renovation project, titled "Fit in every way," is a joint effort between the Sports Office and the Office for Urban Green and Waters.
The renovated playground will retain its wooden shelter and seating, but will see the addition of new equipment designed to cater to a variety of ages and interests. This includes a fitness point, complete with a place for pull-ups, a vertical ladder, and bar, a new balance beam to help improve users' balance and coordination, and a double parallel bar.
Safety concerns and the outdated condition of some play equipment necessitated this complete renovation. However, the project does not involve the replacement of the existing seating or wooden shelter.
To better define the area from surrounding paths, new shrubs will be planted. Additionally, bike racks will be installed at the playground to encourage active travel.
The playground will remain closed during the renovation period, which is expected to be completed by the end of October. The estimated cost of the renovation is around 25,000 euros.
Alternative playground options nearby include the Wildpark Teehaus, Wildpark Waldspielplatz, and the recently renovated TeichstraΓe playground.
It's important to note that the city authorities promoting the project are not explicitly named in the provided search results.
The renovated playground will offer a fun and engaging environment for children, while also providing a fitness point for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. We look forward to the completion of this project and the positive impact it will have on the community.
