In the fall of 2022, the City Parks Department unveiled their plan to remove four Braeside playgrounds, replacing two and reimagining the two other spaces. Braeside residents and members of the BCA board responded with concern and formed the BCA Parks Committee.
After a two-year input and engagement process with Parks, the committee was able to influence the design of the two new playgrounds and give input regarding a reimagined vision for Bradbury Drive and Brackenridge Road parks. The two playgrounds were replaced earlier in 2024, and construction began late 2024 on the reimagined areas.
Results of the 2024 community survey ranked the protection and stewardship of Parks and Green Spaces as a top priority for Braeside.
