A councillor has called for a Grantham estate to get a park which will stop children from having to cross a busy main road.
“Around the Poet’s Corner estate and the neighbouring ward, unfortunately the children have to cross a very busy road to a very small play area that doesn’t meet the needs of the older children’s age group.”He would like to see play equipment installed at the council-owned land off Rossetti Close, which is currently an open park.
“All I have been asking for since well before the pandemic is the same provision that other areas have,” Councillor Selby said.
