The “playground” was essentially just a jury-rigging of tyres and ropes to create tyre swings and a “tyre swing-horse” with some propaganda posters of Basurama splashed around. The swings were quite sturdy (I had a play at about 2 am one night) and generally they were used with a modicum of adult supervision. But, the playground is located in the middle of a main arterial road from one of the tourist areas of Lima (basically a medium strip of grass), and hence it receives a large amount of traffic. There were no barriers set up so it was highly likely that some overexcited kids may spill out onto the causeway. Also, I do question the wisdom of seting up a “kids attraction site” where they have to cross up to 2 lanes of traffic. And in a city with a population near 8 million, and adding the factor of some loose regulating of traffic laws in the country, the term “a safe place to play” doesn´t sound fitting.
