September 2020 Update:
Construction of the pavilion started in September and is anticipated to be completed by July 2021. The park will remain open for use during the construction period, including the sport fields, playground and trails.
Construction vehicles will access the site through the southern park entrance and construction vehicle parking is designated in the parking lot closest to the trail head. The south entrance will remain open to the public, but parking will only be available in the lot closer to Kerns Road. (See sketch below - Visitor Parking is marked with the P).
The trail head will be closed during the construction period (see Unloading Zone). This means that trail users will use the trail on the Kerns Road side of the hedgerow to get to the Bruce Trail at the Brow.
Since approval of the park Master Plan, phased implementation of City View Park (2500 Kerns Rd. Burlington) has occurred including three artificial turf fields, creative playground, parking, pond/wetland, trails, natural restoration and a park maintenance facility. In the next phase, the City of Burlington has designed a park building in City View Park and is planning to construct the building in 2020.
The year-round building will support existing and future planned uses in the park. Specific components of the park building include:
- Public washrooms
- Universal washroom
- Indoor public gathering area that can be used by all park users
- Exterior space includes an outdoor terrace
- Accessible parking and drop-off area
- Interpretive displays highlighting the unique park setting
- A public art installation
We anticipate that construction will begin in the spring of 2020 and end in the summer of 2021. You will receive an update on this project before construction.
