Share your feedback on playground designs for Colonial Drive Park, Holland Crescent Park and Highview Park by November 18.
Guelph, Ont., October 21, 2024—We want your input as we prepare final designs for three City of Guelph playgrounds scheduled for replacement in 2025: Colonial Drive Park, Holland Crescent Park and Highview Park.
Earlier this year we asked the community to let us know what sort of new playground features they’d like to see in the parks. We took that feedback and prepared two concept designs for each location—now we want to know your favourite parts of each design so we can build the best playgrounds possible!
Online surveys are available on Have Your Say until November 18. Look over the design options and let us know what elements should be included in the final designs. Once the designs for each playground are finalized, we’ll share them with the community and the projects will be tendered out for construction in 2025. Construction details and timelines will be shared closer to the construction start dates.
About the playground replacement process
Each year, budget permitting, we undertake several playground lifecycle replacement projects. When we replace play equipment, we consider community input, available budget, maintenance needs and how to make the play equipment fun for everyone. Your participation helps us choose the right play equipment for your neighbourhood.
Playgrounds are replaced approximately every 20 years, pending Council approval. If your local playground isn’t on our list, chances are it’s not quite time for it to be replaced.
