Thumbs up for Rivelin park paddling pools proposals
Visitors to Rivelin park cafe and Hillsborough library have given their approval for plans to refurbish the paddling pools at Rivelin.
Some concerns were raised over the need for additional seating, more litter bins and better car parking and these have been fed back to the designers to see how they can be addressed as the final details are developed
The council hopes the contractor will be able to start work in April once the final designs are approved, with the intention that the improvements will be complete in time for the summer holidays.
Refurbishment in the pipeline for Rivelin paddling pools
Local residents are being consulted on details of the upcoming refurbishment of paddling pools in Rivelin valley park.
Funding has become available to improve the water circulation system and install new play features such as water jets and sprays. One of the pools will be kept for paddling, and the other three will be turned into splash pads.
Yesterday, an exhibition inviting people’s views of possible improvements went on display in Rivelin park cafe.
