Slide Shut Down After Injury | Australia News

Description

A brand new playground in Appin, southwest Sydney, has shut down its star attraction — a slide that opened just months ago — after a man suffered a leg injury.

Paramedics were called before the slide was sealed off with a metal sheet. Years of community planning couldn’t prevent this safety failure — raising urgent questions about oversight and testing.
