West County Playground Upgrades

Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council wishes to redesign and develop the existing local playground facilities at Belarmine Avenue, Deerpark, The Gallops, and the Marlay Junior Playground.

The proposed playgrounds will principally cater for local children of mixed age groups up to twelve with supervising adults. This is a pre-design stage consultation; the information provided will help the design to deliver a quality design with a higher play value for the local community.
