Quota Park playground restorations have completed. Below are the before and after images. Operations has completed a significant restoration as staff reconstructed and regraded the slope leading to the playground, removed hazardous trees, removed large amount of graffiti from the main structure and benches, repaired and repainted the benches, removed the grass/vegetation and completed a full ground resurfacing, and enhanced the entry pathway. New topsoil was hydroseeded and grass has started growing in the area.

The surface was restored with new woodchips and the accessibility factors have been restored.

The surface of the Harbourview Park Playground was replaced with new woodchips to help improve safety and aesthetics.

Playground restorations have begun for playgrounds in the Town of Midland that have passed safety inspections but are in need of upgrading.

The first to be completed is Gawley Park Playground. This playground has a new big blue slide, and the grounds of both the main structure and swing set were dug out, new sand was added and the areas were regraded. Topsoil and seed were laid around the swing area as regrading was done to provided better drainage.
