This winter, the Parks crew has been working hard to prepare South Park and Pioneer Park to receive brand new playground equipment. The previous playground equipment at these parks were beginning to break and replacement parts are no longer being produced. After a recent safety audit, Parks and Recreation became aware of a number of safety hazards and the decision was made to remove the equipment to prevent any injuries. By having our Parks crew do the demolition and sight preparation, Billings Parks and Recreation saved an estimated $35,000 that can now be budgeted towards the purchasing and installation of new playground equipment. Installation of the new playgrounds is scheduled to begin this Spring 2015. Check BillingsParks.org for updates as these projects move forward. In the meantime, here's a little video of our crew hard at work removing the old playground equipment at Pioneer Park.
