Province Center Park Playground Surfacing
Consultation has concluded
The rubber tile playground safety surfacing is approaching the end of its useful life. South Suburban has initiated a renovation effort to replace the tiles with traditional poured-in-place (PIP) rubber safety surfacing. The removal of the existing tiles and installation of the new PIP surfacing are anticipated to begin in mid-June and be completed by mid-July of this year.
