The play area in Ipswich’s Bourne Park will close on Saturday (21st April) to allow the Borough Council to improve the popular facility.

The refurbishment will include new play equipment and picnic area. A Council spokesman said: “We apologise for the inconvenience while the work progresses but we are sure visitors will like the refurbishment when it re opens at the end of May”

Other play areas remain open nearby at Monmouth Close and Halifax Road and teen areas at Whitland Close and Halifax Road.
