Bell Park Playground Opens with Increased Accessibility

Bell Park has been revitalized with inclusive, sensory-supportive spaces that balance accessible play elements with responsive site design!

Mayor and council celebrated the opening of Bell Park in Brookswood with new barrier-free surfacing, expanded inclusive equipment like a wheelchair-transferable bouncer and sensory panels, and added social play features.

These improvements provide opportunities for kids to develop strength, balance, and motor skills, regulate their senses, and engage in meaningful, cooperative play — all while protecting the park’s mature trees and enhancing long-term comfort with added shade and accessible seating.

“It’s great to have these upgrades to Bell Park completed, and now as a space where kids of all abilities can enjoy being kids, regardless of ability. Thanks to the community for all their input in making this happen.” — Mayor Eric Woodward
