Start of Construction

Construction is now underway. The first focus area is the Big Dry Creek Trail segment north of the playground, which is currently closed while crews complete trail improvements. This section is expected to reopen by the end of May. Trail users wishing to continue their walk or bike ride on the Big Dry Creek Trail may use the turf area to go around the closure. There is no specific trail detour as the segment under construction is short. Please use caution when construction crews are present.

The playground and restroom building have also been closed to park users and the construction fence up. Demolition will be occurring for several weeks and then the construction fencing will be expanded to take in the Big Dry Creek trail from the southern extent of the park to the playground, at which time an official trail detour will be posted. Again, please use caution when construction activity is taking place.

South Suburban will continue to share updates as work progresses and appreciates the community’s patience during construction.
