Can anyone here confirm the rumours that there’s a park somewhere in Sydney that isn’t covered in asbestos mulch?

None in the inner west currently
It’s not good, and the root of the issue is the cost to remove and dispose of

Asbestos is everywhere.I remember playing with small chunks of fibro asbestos brought in with fill for the school playground at primary school on the early 80s.
The park across the road had tons of fill dropped on it in the early 80s that came from a new large shopping centre site in Baulkham Hills. The small mounds were there for a few years before it was flattened. Used to walk over them get to school. There were small chunks of fibro in there from the houses they knocked down.
@SuperMoosie @ajsadauskas Are you ok? Do you periodically get your lungs scanned? 🤞
My childhood house [in which Dad still lives] is a timber-framed fibro-clad job that M&D had a local builder build, in the late 50s. Over the ensuing decades they did various extensions [out & up], & various incidental maintenance stuff, all of which involved handling & cutting fibro. I often wonder if/how we avoided that landmine… 🤷♀️
James Hardie, eh; how good! 🤦♀️
I was going to say Wolli Creek parklands, but no, there are spots where building waste has been dumped.
@ajsadauskas Oh, fake news!
a park somewhere in Sydney that isn’t covered in asbestos mulch
Such egregious falsehood… 🤭
So, yay capitalism?
@ajsadauskas Waiter, there’s some mulch in my asbestos! 😞
@ajsadauskas @sydney that’s insane
