I have just returned from a site visit to look at the new surface in the play area at Romsey Rec. The contractor, officers, and other councillors were there. Whilst I accept that it looks a bit unsavoury at the moment, I am convinced that once the grass grows through and the site settles it will be an improvement.
The council has been replacing wood chippings with this surface for over ten years and it is deemed more satisfactory. A number of points were discussed and when the officer sends them through I will come back to you with the practical, technical and financial details.
