Dry Creek Park Synthetic Turf Fields
Approximately nine acres of existing turf grass on the athletic fields at Dry Creek Park will be replaced with synthetic turf as part of capital improvements to the park. Additionally, lighting will be added to prolong the usability of the fields.
Sledding Hill Borrow Site
As part of construction at Resilient St. Vrain Project (RSVP) Izaak Walton Reach 2 (Boston Ave to Sunset Street), dirt will be exported from the unofficial sledding hill located on the south side of the Dry Creek Community Park parking lot. The project will also import dirt to reconstruct the sledding hill and make the site whole again. The RSVP Izaak Walton Reach 2 construction project is a partnership between the City and the US Army Corps of Engineers. The US Army Corps will contract and manage the construction project. For more information on the project, please visit the RSVP page.
Schedule
A design contract for the park synthetic fields has been awarded. Construction is anticipated to begin in April of 2024 and be completed by the end of the year. The RSVP Izaak Walton Reach 2 is anticipated to begin construction in first quarter of 2024 with an anticipated 18-month construction schedule.
