Steinbach Aquatic Centre parking lot facelift
The final strips of sod will soon be laid, light posts are up and the last lines have been painted, marking the completion of the parking lot improvements at the Steinbach Aquatic Centre.
“We are very pleased with the finished product,” said Dean Janzen, Aquatic Centre Manager, “We now have a parking lot to match our first rate facility.”
The work to pave, add overhead lights and improve overall traffic flow in the parking lot took about seven weeks. A general drop-off and pick-up area has been created to improve safety and an additional entrance was created off of Park Road to improve traffic flow. Handicap parking stalls are well marked and designated staff parking has been created.
“Although the work had to take place during our busy summer season, we have had a lot of great feedback and support for these improvements” states Janzen, “We appreciate the cooperation of visitors for the duration of this project.”
The final project cost is expected to be under the $600K budget approved by City Council in March.
