About this project
We are looking at how parks and associated amenities are used today and how we can make them even better for the future. Share your thoughts and ideas to help shape more vibrant, accessible and inclusive park spaces in our community.
Background
London has experienced rapid growth in recent years and continues to increase in population. Feedback from this current engagement opportunity about parkland needs and associated amenities will help inform an update to the City’s Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The Parks and Recreation Master Plan, approved by City Council on June 25, 2019, assists with the planning, design, funding, building and maintenance of London's parks and recreation system.
In 2025, we began to engage Londoners about this update, hearing from the community through open houses, pop ups, meetings with organizations, an online webinar, and an online survey available on this website. This consultation builds upon the extensive community engagement that was completed in 2019, which informed the 2019 Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Many of these findings from 2019 remain relevant and continue to be implemented.
A report has been prepared for Council in April 2026 about what we’ve heard so far, as well as an overview of the public feedback and draft emerging directions.
