The Friends of Hatherop Park are pleased to announce that the new play road and other designs are now installed!
The play road was completed on Friday 20 Sep 2013 and officially opened by the Mayor of Richmond upon Thames ably assisted by local school children on Friday 18 Oct 2013 - there are some pictures of this event on our Home page.
The pictures below can only give you an idea of what the scheme looks like - why not visit soon with your children? Encourage them to bring their bikes and scooters so they can learn about road safety whilst having fun at the same time.
Any comments or questions about this scheme should be addressed to:
John Everitt, Safety Education Officer (London Borough of Richmond upon Thames)
