Cordova Valley Park Redevelopment

Notice of Construction

This notice is to advise you that the City of Oshawa will be undertaking construction of Cordova Valley Park including site grading, a paved parking lot, new playground and splash pad, safety surfacing, soccer field, pathways, site furnishings and plantings. A new off-leash dog area with paved parking lot will also be constructed in the northern portion of the Park. For public safety, Cordova Valley Park will be closed and fenced during construction.  Pedestrian access between Glen Street and the Joseph Kolodzie Oshawa Creek Bike Path will be provided outside of the fenced construction area, where feasible. From time to time, heavy equipment will need to access the site from Glen Street or Malaga Road, and associated noise levels may increase during these times. Regular work hours will take place between 7a.m. and 5p.m., Monday to Friday. Should you have any concerns during this time, please contact the City at the information provided below. We realize that aspects of this work may be disruptive at times. While periods of inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances may impact the work schedule, please be assured that the City will make every effort to complete the work as quickly and efficiently as possible. The work is scheduled to take place from May 2022 to late 2022.

The City of Oshawa is undertaking a  redevelopment of Cordova Valley Park, a 3.18 hectare neighbourhood park located at 811 Glen Street. The Park is adjacent to a residential neighbourhood and the Oshawa Creek valley system. The Joseph Kolodzie Oshawa Creek Bike Path travels along the Oshawa Creek to the east of the Park, with informal trails connecting the Park to the formal bike path.
