Park revamp is child's play

A NEW £100,000 children's play area is set to be built in a public park after the plans were approved by council chiefs.

East Lothian Council has appointed Jupiter Play and Leisure Ltd to design and install the play area in Tranent's Polson Park.

Councillor Ruth Currie, cabinet member for community wellbeing, said: "Polson Park is an important asset for Tranent residents, but visitor numbers have dropped recently because it has become run down."
