September to November 2023
The City of Burlington is renewing Bridgeview Park, located at 1530 Norwood Ave.
Construction is expected to begin, weather permitting, in September and last approximately 8-10 weeks. Timing for start of construction has been shifted to September to accommodate the production and delivery timing of the play equipment and keep the playground open during July and August.
Please note: the completion date may be affected by weather, or by production and service delays in the construction industry.
Construction at Bridgeview Park will include:
- Replacement of playground equipment and swings
- Drainage and grading improvements
- Installation of engineered wood fibre surfacing
- New concrete transition curbs for accessibility into playground areas
- Path improvements
- Removal of existing ball diamond backstop and footings (restoration with sod)
- Clearing/grubbing at existing maintenance building
- Memorial bench re-installation on new pad
- New site furniture
To ensure safety during construction, most of the park will be closed and fenced off. We appreciate your cooperation and patience during construction to ensure a safe environment for all.
Love My Playground! Survey - thank you for your input
In 2021, the City conducted a ‘Love my Playground’ survey to get feedback about the types of equipment the community would like to see at local playgrounds when the equipment is replaced in 2023. Thank you to everyone who completed the survey.
Your input was used by the playground designers when deciding which pieces of play equipment to include in the Bridgeview Park playground.
