Playgrounds are an important part of the park experience for residents and visitors. They provide free physical and creative activities for children and their families. Playgrounds are designed to challenge and stimulate all children, regardless of their abilities. Accessible outdoor play spaces allow for all children to play together, increasing understanding and integration.
The City of Burlington maintains more that 130 playgrounds within city parks and on school properties. Over the past two decades, we have focused on improving playground safety and accessibility. The city has an ongoing commitment to ensure that our playgrounds meet or exceed the most current CSA safety standards as well as the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, Design of Public Spaces Standard. The city replaces a number of playgrounds each year.
We want to hear from you...
Over the next two years, the City will be replacing a number of playgrounds in parks across the city as shown in the list below. Families who live near and use these parks are invited to complete a short online survey to give us an idea of the types of equipment and features that they would prefer for their new playground.
The survey is now closed. Results of the survey will be posted on this page in March/April.
All playgrounds will include junior and senior structures and swings (these components are not included in the survey).
