The Footbridge over the Creek is now wheelchair semi-friendly again!

One of the main issues that remained, following all the recent improvements identified by DASSP, was the fact that the Creek footbridge, between the narrow path into the park from the schools and the playing Oval, had become unfriendly for those using wheelchairs.

Over time, the soil on either side had fallen away from the cement, like the issue previously fixed at the Pavillion.

The good news is that the problem has successfully been remediated, and it is now safe for those in power chairs.  

The bad news is that for those in manual chairs, the steep slope on the east side of the footbridge requires an extension of the handrails on either side, or a correction on the degree of incline into/from the Oval.

We are following up on that issue and hope to have it remediated in a timely fashion.
