Fleming urges Strathfoyle play park to be completed ‘as quickly as possible’

The development of a play park in the Strathfoyle area of Derry is a step closer following news a tender has gone out for a lead consultant and multi-disciplinary integrated consultant team for the project.

Welcoming the news, Sinn Fein councillor for the area, Paul Fleming (pictured), said it was now “important” to move to the next stage and the start and completion of the project “takes place as quickly as possible.”

He added: “This is steady progress on our motion back in December calling on the council to provide the entire funding required for the construction of a play park for the wider Strathfoyle community which was ratified at full council.

“The need for a play park has been a key issue for the residents of Strathfoyle and Sinn Féin for a considerable period of time.”
