The accessible trail project at Megan Wahl Memorial Park

Medicine Hat – Construction of an accessible asphalt trail at Megan Wahl Memorial Park is scheduled to begin on August 28, with a projected completion date in September 2023.

The current absence of a trail between Vista Drive and the playground limits the facility’s overall accessibility and inclusivity, particularly for those using wheelchairs and strollers. To address this, an accessible asphalt connector trail will be constructed from Vista Drive SE to the playground to improve access.

The area of the park from Vista Drive to the playground will be closed during this time. While the playground will remain open, users are encouraged to exercise caution and to respect the construction fence. Please observe and comply with construction and closure signage in the area. For more information, please call 403.529.8333.

The City of Medicine Hat would like to thank residents for their patience and understanding as the necessary improvements are completed.
