North Link playground is between Kennedy Way and Andersonstown Road, Loughside playground is in Loughside Park, Shore Road, and New Lodge playground is at Victoria Parade, North Queen Street.At the council’s recent meeting of its People and Communities Committee, elected representatives saw the results of officer’s annual inspections, and the list of playground quality scores.
The next three lowest scores are Springfield Site A on 7.3, Walkway Playground, Finvoy Street on 7.4, and Willowbank Play Area on 7.5. The council states: “Play Services Ireland undertook annual inspections at all 105 council-maintained playgrounds earlier this year. The ‘mean quality score’ they allocated for each site relates to the condition of existing play equipment and compliance with European safety standards. All playgrounds were then ranked in order of their mean quality score, helping to identify facilities in most need of improvement this year.
