Say How You Play!
Online Survey
When Lincoln residents engage and weigh in on park design, it enables the Town to build better parks and the public continues to enjoy and care for places they helped make. It is truly the people who use these spaces who help define them as places the community can enjoy spending time in. The survey is now closed. Thank you to all those who participated!
Virtual Open Houses
The Town of Lincoln hosted two virtual open houses on February 9th, 2022 and February 10th, 2022. Thank you to all those who participated! If you weren't able to attend and would like to see the presentation, please click here.
About Jordan Lions Park
Jordan Lions Park is a 14.75 acre facility located at 2793 Fourth Avenue in Jordan. The park is one of Lincoln’s two sports parks, featuring athletic amenities for organized sports; softball (two unlit diamonds and two lit diamonds) and soccer (one field). In addition, there is a gravel parking lot, two small playgrounds, an outdoor pool and bath house, splash pad, picnic area with seating and a pavilion, outdoor washrooms and open greenspace with trees.
Jordan Lions Park Aerial MapThe Town of Lincoln continues to replace existing park infrastructure according to lifecycle needs, as well as plan for park redevelopment and barrier free projects that address aging infrastructure and accessibility requirements. Site visits, conditions audits and stakeholder consultation confirm that Jordan Lions Park requires investment to capital infrastructure.
Please note that the revitalization of the Jordan Lions Arena will be completed as a separate project.
People Make Parks
Shifting to a “people-centred” parks planning model, the Town of Lincoln recognizes that the community knows its parks and their uses best. Residents will be encouraged to participate and identify what they value most for inclusion in the Jordan Lions Park Redevelopment Plan. From November 2021 to February 2022, Staff will collect data from the community through various ways of engagement, including Speak Up Lincoln, Virtual Open Houses, Facility Surveys, Stakeholder Focus Groups, and Presentations to Council and Staff.
The objectives are:
- Validate recommendations made in the 2019 Parks, Recreation and Culture Master Plan
- Seek additional feedback on shifting community needs and priorities due to the pandemic
- Maximize park usage and enhance park layout
- Identify missing park elements that would increase participation and accessibility, including the addition of age-friendly, active transportation and green technology features
Connection to Jordan Village
In a quest to enhance active transportation and pedestrian expansion, the Town of Lincoln will be undergoing a revitalization of existing roads as part of the Jordan Village Improvement Project. Key components will enhance the ability for residents and tourists to explore the future upgrades to Jordan Lions Park.
The current approved upgrades include:
- Dedicated bike-lanes on the boulevards down both sides of Nineteenth complete with visual and tactile buffers between the curb and edge of bike-path;
- Sidewalks adjacent to bikes along the edge of the road allowance separated by a visual and tactile buffer between sidewalk and bike-path;
- Buffers created out of a premium exposed aggregate concrete finish giving it both visual appeal and tactile difference between pedestrian and bike facilities;
- Street-lighting improvements along Nineteenth and Main Street;
- Bike and pedestrian crossings at all exiting and newly constructed intersections.
The Public Works Department have identified future research and development efforts into the continuity of connecting the new Nineteenth Street sidewalks to additional pathways along Fourth Avenue.
