Soil investigation at Lewiston’s playground
The site of the playground on Hayman Road in Lewiston is currently being investigated for possible soil contamination. Adelaide Plains Council discussed the issue at its January meeting after it became known the soil fill used for the area where the playground was built, was taken from the railway at Lower Light. Historically, railway corridors have issues with contamination of railroad tracks seeping contaminants into the soil. Councillor Karen McColl spoke about local residents’ concerns regarding the site, and informed the chamber she believed testing of the soil was already underway when previous CEO Katrina Martin was at the helm. However, there seems to be some confusion as to where the actual results from this testing are but council has pledged to track down the results rather than conduct new tests.
