Metal fencing to be deployed around playgrounds in bid to uphold COVID-19 Restrictions


Metal fencing has been deployed around playgrounds and outdoor exercise areas in Vancouver in order to prevent people from flouting COVID-19 restriction rules, a recent news report in the local media has been able to suggest.

When playgrounds and outdoor exercise spaces were initially shut down, caution tape was used to block them off. While many people respected the closures, the Park Board says the yellow tape was getting torn down every day at certain sites and staff had to continually replace it.

The playgrounds at Douglas and David Lam parks, the Victoria Park bocce lanes, and the playground and basketball courts at Coopers’ Park are now enclosed with a total of 2,280 feet, or 695 metres of metal fencing.

In terms of cracking down on repeat offenders, the City of Vancouver says park rangers don’t have the power to enforce physical distancing in city spaces but they continue to warn individuals and groups who are not following the Provincial Health Officer’s directive to stay two metres apart.
