Harbour Bridge Park

Jonathan from Herne Bay

I see signage has been installed around the edge of the path approaching the harbour bridge as notification of that areas approaching significant upgrade.
I notice from their images there is no sign of the lovely traditional park benches and they look to be replaced by concrete slabs and wood blocks.
Why do this? Traditional park seats like that are comfortable, sensible, well placed and no doubt were very expensive. I think it would be a shame to lose the existing seats.
Also, I hope the fishing tables and hoses stay as well as these get a huge amount of use.
