OUT OF COMMISSION: The bird’s nest apparatus at Dawson Road play area, Barnard Castle
NO sooner has Barnard Castle Town Council repaired one piece of unsafe equipment in a play park, than it now has to cordon off another in a different area.
The council’s services committee heard that flat swings had been replaced at Bouch Way park, but problems had arisen with the Hucks bird’s nest apparatus at Dawson Road play area.
Town clerk Martin Clark said: “It is a big piece of equipment. A routine inspection revealed significant issues with it. It identified that the existing cross beams need to be replaced.
It isn’t the first time a Tanglin Halt site was selected for a SERS project.
Previously, in January 2003, the government announced its SERS plans for blocks 50 to 54 at Tanglin Halt.
Homeowners were given the option to purchase flats at blocks 89 to 91, which they moved into by 2008.
This current SERS project affects blocks 24 to 38 and 40 to 45 at Tanglin Halt.
Many long-time residents have up sticks and left.
Background on redevelopment of Tanglin Halt
About 3,480 households were slated to be moved to new flats in nearby Margaret Drive, Dawson Road and Strathmore Avenue by 2020.
The Commonwealth Drive Food Centre, Tanglin Halt Market, and the surrounding shops are to be cleared over a period of seven to 10 years starting from 2014.

A shut-down care home which has sat vacant for three years is to be turned into new apartments.
Applicant Abrol Ltd had permission approved to change the use of the former Milverton Gates Care Centre on Dawson Road, Lower Stoke.
The 1,730sqm site ceased operation as a care home in May 2018 and has sat vacant ever since, becoming a target for fly-tipping.
Previous plans to turn it into a 36-bed house in multiple occupation were withdrawn last September after sparking a 54-name petition from concerned neighbours.
