Public input wanted on citys playground renovations

The city is inviting Brantford residents to have their say on 2023 playground renovations.

The city wants public input for playground projects at: Devereux Park, 401 Wellington St.; Iroquois Park, 132 Victoria St.; Pace Avenue Park, 66 Pace Ave.; and Silverbridge Park, 75 Dante Cres.

Residents can give input for each playground at www.LetsTalkBrantford.ca/PlaygroundDecisionMaking until Jan. 15.

“It’s very important for us to ensure each playground captures the needs of the neighborhood,” said Hana Abdulla, Brantford’s co-ordinator of parks design and development. “Plans are on track for residents to start enjoying the new play equipment when they are completed in the fall of 2023.”

Each new park will feature additional trees, new playground equipment, accessible and paved pathways, wood chip safety surfacing under play areas and new benches.

Results of voting on the playground designs will be shared on the city’s social media channels after the survey closes.
