PARKS & NEIGHBOURHOODS

NEWPARK DEVELOPMENTS Visit our Parks, Recreation & Culture website to learn about new park development projects underway in our Maple Ridge Parks ( mapleridge.ca/1441 ). We also have a field development projects page for information on the field projects ( mapleridge.ca/1890 ).

SYNTHETIC FIELDS UPDATE A new synthetic field at Golden Ears Elementary and Arthur Peake Centre is now open. This new multi-sport soccer, lacrosse and baseball field is the second of four new synthetic fields for our community and features LED sports lighting, a shock pad, odourless engineered infill made from new material and an expanded parking area for sports users. The synthetic turf carpet at Samuel Robertson Technical Secondary School , Rotary Field was also fully replaced this year in time for the fall and winter sports season. ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUNDS The playgrounds at Belle Morse and Alouette Park have been replaced with new playgrounds featuring accessible play components. Some of the accessible components that you might find at these playgrounds include transfer platforms, a “Giant Wave Climber”, a “Zero – G” swing chair or the “Spinning Sensory Wave Seat”. Alouette Park also has an accessible ramp and connecting pathways. LIONS PARK Come check out the newly installed basketball court, scooter and junior bike track at Lions Park (12100 Laity Street). This project was part of a lifecycle replacement of the old tennis and basketball courts. Community consultations suggested the idea that a scooter and bike track would be a great fit for the neighbourhood.
