We’re pleased to share that the improved access path between Radford Close and Royal Meadow Drive Recreation Ground has now been completed.

This improvement will help make the Recreation Ground more accessible for residents and visitors of all ages and abilities, providing an easier route into the park for walkers, families with pushchairs, wheelchair users, and those with accessibility needs.

The new path will help more people enjoy the open space, play areas, and recreational facilities available at Royal Meadow Drive Recreation Ground, while also improving connectivity within the local community.

We hope the new access route will encourage even more people to make use of this valuable community space.
