Relates to: Department of Justice 2nd Year ADA Compliance Report (city)test Is this why playgrounds all have wood chips?Several years ago, I asked the Parks & Rec dept in Pasadena,CA why they were replacing sand with wood chips in all the parks. The answer they gave was 'ADA'. But, wood chips aren't all that accessible in reality (my husband is in a wheelchair), and they are horrible for the kids - splinters, and not as soft for landing on. My daughter broke her wrist falling onto wood chips at her school. Can't we have a better solution?Mostly sand with rubberized concrete paths would be ideal, but I don't know how much more expensive." |
