Bovis Park - Final Playground Design
Following the abundant input received through our public consultation process we have finalized the playground design to include the features and elements that you as a community have identified as priorities. Thank you again for your contributions and input!
A new expanded playground area will be created including;
- Concrete curbs
- An accessible ramp for access into the playground
- Engineered wood fibre safety surfacing
- A bench with back and arms
- A concrete sidewalk with parking space for strollers or mobility devices
- Deciduous trees for shade
- Picnic benches (not shown) will also provided for movable seating options
Based on your feedback the final design for the playground replacement will include the following highlights;
- 4 Swings - 2 belt, 1 accessible, 1 tot
- A snake pole climber
- A gallagher the grasshopper spring toy
- Talk tubes
- A telescope panel
- A tic-tac-toe activity panel
- Beat blocks and bongo panels
- A stand 'n' spin motion event
- A loop rail overhead climber
- A pogo pod
Through the public consultation there were some questions regarding the possibility of having larger park features such splash pad elements or a zip-line included as part of this project. Please note that the Town's standard is to include these larger park features within community level parks, where adequate facilities and infrastructure are available, and would not be considered for a park of this size.
Our anticipated timeline is for playground replacement to be complete by Fall 2021.
Thank you again for your continued support and feedback throughout this process.
