Work begins on Amble Welfare Playzone
Work will begin on Amble Welfare Playzone on Monday 24 February. There will be a smart new Playzone area marked out for basketball, netball and football on one half of the current MUGA site. The second half will be resurfaced. New fencing will be installed with gated access to the Playzone end. All the floodlights will be retained.
One half of the current MUGA area will become a Playzone (coloured in green)
The area will be closed for up to 12 weeks while the work takes place.
Julia Aston, director of Amble Development Trust said, “We are pleased to announce that the work to create the Playzone is finally going ahead. It’s been an exasperating process, but we hope it will be worth it in the end.”
The area will be closed for up to 12 weeks while work goes ahead.
The Playzone end will be bookable, but has to be paid for, which is a condition of the funding. The other end will continue to be free to use. There will be no markings, but the surface will be relaid and new basketball/netball hoops will be installed.
Information on how to book the Playzone will be released by Amble Development Trust soon.
