Violations of the ERS Exposed bolts were a huge downfall of this Playground.
Even rusty bolts were a big hit.
Beautiful walkway underneath, wobbly fall above
Tripping hazards!

Fingers can be easily caught and hurt by exposed metal.
Problem Solution
Encasing any metal contact with a substance such as rubber could prevent injuries

I felt around to feel how hard/rough the material was for any sharp edges.
It seems okay, except for small areas kids’ little feet could get caught and an accident is capable of happening.
