Residents' views sought on new park play area
A council in Kent is asking for residents' views on a play area that will be in a new park. Folkestone and Hythe District Council said the play area would be in a public park in Bouverie Square, which is part of the government-funded Folkestone – A Brighter Future programme. The park would be constructed when the new bus stops are created along Shellons Street, the council added. A survey on the play area, which arts charity Creative Folkestone has been commissioned to deliver, is open until 16:00 BST on 28 April. The council said Folkestone – A Brighter Future would provide a boost to the regeneration of the town centre. Work has started on the £20m-scheme and is expected to finish in the summer of 2026.
