The City is improving the playground in Cedarvale Park as part of an ongoing program to enhance playgrounds and play spaces across the city, so that everyone can experience the joys and benefits of play for years to come.

  • Fall 2025: Hire a design team
  • Winter to Spring 2026: Community engagement and design development
  • Spring to Summer 2026: Construction starts, playground closes
  • Fall 2026: Construction complete, playground reopens

The timeline is subject to change.

Online Survey

November 2025

The survey will ask for your feedback and preferences on playground options. The design team will use this community feedback to develop the final playground design.

The results of the survey will also be shared on this page.

Level of Engagement

This project has been classified as a Consult project based on the International Association for Public Participation Spectrum. This means we collect and consider public feedback on proposed design options to inform the development of a final playground design.

Cedarvale Park Playground is located near the existing tennis courts.

The playground currently includes:

  • one swing set with:
    • one swing for ages two to five
    • one swing for ages five and up
  • a small single slide
  • a small double slide
  • a junior play structure with panels
  • sand under all play areas

The playground will be redesigned using community feedback and is proposed to include:

  • playground equipment for ages two to five
  • playground equipment for ages five to 12
  • additional seating
  • engineered wood fibre surfacing
  • an accessible pathway to the playground area

The play equipment and pathway connecting to the playground area will comply with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). Learn more about how playgrounds are made accessible.

Improvements will only be made in the general playground area and will not include any new water or lighting features or improvements to other areas of the park.
