The Town plans to install a pump track by Fall 2026 to offer a new youth-oriented recreation amenity that provides a safe space for youth to enjoy biking and other wheeled activities. A pump track is a purpose-built track with features like rollers and banked turns designed to be ridden by “pumping” rather than pedaling or pushing.
Council has officially approved a modular pump track design. The next step is determining the most suitable location for installation. From mid-May to early July 2026, the Town collected input on preferred locations from community members. Administration is compiling the feedback into a report for Council to consider before deciding where to install the pump track. You can review the mock design and information about potential locations below.
A sponsorship package to support the project will also be released in the coming weeks for businesses and community partners interested in contributing.
Design
Below is a mock design of the proposed configuration. The layout is flexible and components can be adjusted, rearranged, or reconfigured to better suit the chosen site and user experience.
Please note, the final installed feature may vary slightly from the concept shown.
Potential Locations
A key benefit of a modular pump track is its flexibility. The track can be taken down, relocated, and reinstalled in a different location if needed. As the community grows and changes over time, the pump track can adapt and move to continue meeting recreational needs.
The following potential locations are being considered:

A minimum 40-metre setback from adjacent property lines will be maintained at all locations to help reduce potential impacts on nearby residents.
