Project Summary

The overall concept for the all-wheel park is for a plaza-style skate park, a pump track, a social/event plaza and a washroom facility. It will be located on the lakeside of Municipal Parking Lot 10/Downtown Transit Terminal and will be integrated with the existing multiuse courts. This project is supported by the Downtown Waterfront Master Plan (DWMP) and is identified in the Parks Master Plan.

Due to the specialized nature of this project, the City will use a 'Design-Build' model for project delivery. This is a project delivery method where the design and the construction services are awarded to a single entity called the 'Design Builder'. Through this method, the Design Builder will engage with the City and public stakeholders at several points during the project (see timeline at the right hand side of this webpage for identified engagement events). Once the design is finalized and accepted by the City, the construction phase will begin. The design-build contract was awarded to New Line Skateparks Inc

The City has received funding approval up to $801,198 through the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation (NOHFC) under the Community Enhancement Program. The Kiwanis Club of Nipissing have also committed $100,000 to the project (see here for news release).
