The City of Abbotsford is planning to construct a new splash pad and replace the existing playground at Ridgeview Park. We are currently seeking feedback from local residents to help inform the design of these new amenities.

Background: Ridgeview Park is located at 3250 Vantage Place in the Townline neighborhood. The park is approximately 1.78 hectares and existing amenities in the park include baseball and soccer fields, playground, parking lot, walking paths, washrooms and a community picnic shelter.

The new splash pad and playground will be located near the main park entrance in a similar location as the existing playground. These additions will complement the existing park amenities, and provide a fun, interactive, safe, and accessible space.

Every effort will be made to keep the park open during construction. The new splash pad and playground are expected to be open to the public in the summer of 2026!

PHASE 2: Take the online survey between November 18 - December 2, 2025 to tell us which design feature you like.

    Hello, thank you for the questions and input. 

     

    The concept design presentation boards are available in the Documents section on the 

    Ridgeview Park Splash Pad and Playground Let's Talk page. This section is located at the bottom right of the page.

     

    We have also updated the survey questions to include a direct link to the boards.


    We have retained a professional design consultant to provide design services for the project and the design of the splash pad and the new playground will incorporate accessible features for visitors of all ages and abilities.

    Will the play park be gone? When you put in the splash park? Can’t we keep both?

    Hi Samantha,

    Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. No, the playground will not be removed. The existing playground is aging, so as part of this project, we are planning to build a new playground alongside the addition of a splash pad at Ridgeview Park.

    The new splash pad and playground will be designed together to create a fun, interactive, and inclusive play environment for park users. Every effort will be made to keep the park open during the construction phase to minimize disruptions.

    We appreciate your input and look forward to enhancing the park for the community!

    Can you plant more shade giving trees?

    Samantha asked 12 months ago

    Hi Samantha, 

    Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns and ideas about our new splash pad and playground at Ridgeview Park. 

    Yes, we will incorporate planting design as part of the landscape design for the new splash pad and playground. Our goal is to strategically place trees throughout the park to provide more shade for park users, especially around the splash pad and playground to offer relief during hot summer days.

    We appreciate your input and will keep shade considerations in mind as we finalize the design.
