Other areas of the park will remain open during construction
VANCOUVER – The play areas at Hazel Dell Community Park will be closed beginning in early January for the removal of old play equipment and the installation of new equipment. Other areas of the park will remain open during construction. Those visiting the park during construction are reminded to stay out of closed areas and watch for construction traffic.
The replacement play equipment was selected based on community feedback from an online survey and several events. A castle/medieval theme was selected.
More improvements will be made at Hazel Dell Community Park in 2026 and beyond. Construction of accessibility improvements to the parking areas and walkways is expected to begin in summer 2026.
Additional information and project updates are posted on the park’s webpage: clark.wa.gov/public-works/hazel-dell-community-park.
