Victor Weggery Reserve playground equipment renewal

Details

We are seeking a solution for the replacement of playground equipment at Victor Weggery Reserve, Waikanae. A large tower, spinner, section of the junior playground and a climbing module are being removed.

The main playground equipment being removed is spread over two separate footprints, and we are interested to see how these areas could be linked to enhance the overall flow of the playground. Additionally, while footprint B will not change, due to a separate piece remaining, we are open to moving and or, downsizing footprint A to accommodate the right solution.

Council has engaged Mike’s Bobcats Ltd, a local contractor, to complete the demolition and removal of the existing playground equipment. Mike’s Bobcats will clear and remove the old safety surface (bark) in preparation for installation of new equipment. After the new equipment has been installed Mike’s Bobcats will spread fresh bark as safety surface.

Scope of works:

Schedule of equipment to fit within the current playground footprints. Schedule should include but is not limited to:
- A tower catering to multiple age levels incorporating at least one slide with various climbing options and tactile or imaginative play at lower heights.
- A slide to replace a section of the junior play equipment.
- 1 x shade sail covering either the junior play equipment or a seating area located within the playground area.
- Installation of the equipment.

Excluded from scope:

1. Re-establishment of any existing playground site that will be returned into grass.
2. Demolition of playground equipment
3. Removal of bark safety surface.
4. Procurement and installation of new playground safety surface
5. Any new park furniture.
