Officials with the city of Richardson will begin replacing playground equipment at Breckinridge Park, located at 5300 E. Renner Road, on July 10 and expect to continue through Oct. 31, according to documents filed with the state.
The renovations are expected to cost $886,939, and new features include a concrete walkway surrounding the park, a water fountain and additional seating. The new equipment includes swing sets, a rope-pull play structure and a We-Go Round.
Funding for the park renovations were included in the 2021 bond program, which was approved by nearly 75% of Richardson voters. Proposition E of the 2021 bond program supplied $3 million to renovate nine neighborhood parks, including the new playground at Breckinridge park.
