Bartlem Park South Project Update

Posted on 04/14/2023

DeRita & Sons Construction Co., Inc has been working diligently over the past two months on site work and excavation in preparation for site improvements. The project is currently on schedule with an anticipated completion of fall 2024.

The park was planned with input from town residents and officials with the assistance of professional engineers and designers, and will offer a variety of activities.  The Great Lawn will be a wonderful gathering place for the community, hosting concerts and other events.  There will be areas for walking and passive recreation, and multiple quality fields for our active sports teams and participants. 

The chaos of construction will soon lead to a beautiful park emerging among the payloaders and huge trucks, mounds of dirt, and dozens of hardhats.  The project is expected to be completed within 24 months.  It will be a wonderful asset for our community.
