The Residents Committee have received a communication from RMG to confirm that, following guidance from both the government and Renfrewshire Council, BAE Systems have taken the decision to close the two estate playparks within Dargavel to prevent the spread of the Coronavirus. As the playparks are not cleaned or disinfected in any way they represent a potential infection risk to the children using the playparks.
As a result the smaller playpark next to the playing fields opposite Taylor Wimpey H3 has been locked and the playpark on Birch Road next to the Persimmon/Charles Church H2 parcel has had heras fencing placed around it to prevent access.
Given current government guidance this is sensible and will help to ensure that the risk of infection to young children, their families and friends is minimised as far as possible.
