Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

As part of our annual playground replacement program, three neighbourhood playgrounds will get new equipment over the next year

And the winners are...

Check out the final designs as voted by you! Your feedback made for fun and exiting designs that appeal to a variety of ages and are designed specifically for the people in your neighbourhood!

What we did

In 2023, we heard your thoughts on design needs for these three parks and later, you voted on your favorites

We presented two playground designs each for Dovercliffe Park and Howitt Park in September and early October. University Village park was identified as a great location for a more accessible park with rubber surfacing and ramped play structures, and so we engaged on those park design options separately in December.

All designs presented were based on community feedback from round one in the spring of 2023

What's next

We're starting construction soon. watch for the new playgrounds coming to a park near you over the spring and summer of 2024.

Using your feedback and in consultation with our Accessibility Advisory Committee, we’ve created two playground designs for the park featuring ramps, rubber surfacing and more accessible playground equipment.
