Condon Park Splash Pad Construction Update - August 19, 2025

What to Expect: Current Construction Activities

The Condon Park Splash Pad Construction Team continues to make progress onsite and finished pouring the concrete for the pump house (the small building that will control the splash pad) foundation yesterday (August 18). The contractors onsite report that the foundation will dry and harden today and they plan to remove the wooden forms tomorrow. Piping for the pump house will be installed starting next week. Check out the progress photos below!

Work continues to take place within the construction fencing, and no impacts to the neighboring sidewalks and parking areas are anticipated during this work. Please watch for trucks entering and exiting the work area.

UPDATED TIMELINE: The project completion date has been revised from the end of August to the end of September to address site conditions encountered during the work. 

Regulatory Coordination and Compliance

Throughout construction, the project team maintains ongoing communication with multiple Town departments, including Engineering, Public Works, Building, and Stormwater Management, to ensure the project adheres to all applicable regulations and municipal standards.

Site Security and Safety

Temporary construction fencing has been installed around the work area to ensure both public safety and site security, and will remain in in place throughout the project to protect visitors and construction personnel.

Portions of the playground, including some play structures, are now temporarily fenced off during construction and are not available for use at this time. Signage has been installed to help further delineate which portions of the playground are still open. 

Park Access

• The playground, ball field, and parking areas will remain open and accessible
• Construction area will be clearly marked and fenced for safety. Please be respectful of the construction tape and fencing; do not remove or attempt to move them.

Funding Source

The splash pad construction is funded through American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds distributed by Norfolk County.

Anticipated Project Schedule

Project is expected to be completed by the end of September. Schedule updates will be shared as they are available.
