Middlesex Township received $204,500 for a pedestrian walkway, play equipment, safety surfacing, Americans with Disablities Act access, landscaping, signage and other improvements at Middlesex Township Community Park.

A Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources grant will finance the construction of a playground at the Middlesex Township Community Park.

The project consists of the installation of a new playground on the site of the old baseball field dugouts at the park at 133 Browns Hill Road in Middlesex.

The $204,500 grant is set aside for “work to include construction of pedestrian walkway; installation of play equipment with required safety surfacing; (Americans with Disablities Act) access, landscaping, project sign and other related site improvements.”

Township manager Adam Hartwig said the project is a year in the making.
