Sinkhole in children’s playground to be filled

City officials have announced plans to fill a sinkhole that has appeared in the children’s playground at Central Park. The sinkhole, which is approximately 10 feet wide and 5 feet deep, poses a potential safety hazard for children playing in the area.

Construction crews will begin work on filling the sinkhole next week, using a combination of gravel and concrete to stabilize the ground. The playground will be closed during the construction process, but officials anticipate that it will be reopened within a few weeks.

Parents are urged to keep their children away from the playground until the sinkhole has been properly filled and the area deemed safe for use. City officials have assured that the playground will undergo regular inspections to prevent any similar incidents in the future.
