Arlington Playground Shut Down Due To Safety Concerns

ARLINGTON, MA — The play structure at Poets Corner has been temporarily shut down as of Wednesday, according to the town.

Caution tape was placed around the playground on Wadsworth Road after the town’s Playground Safety Inspector deemed it unsafe. Temporary fencing is slated to be installed to keep people away from the structure until it can be removed by the Recreation and Public Works Departments.

Arlington has more than 30 parks and recreational areas residents can visit while Poets Corner is out of commission.
