The City of Leduc has announced a series of construction projects for the 2026 season aimed at updating local parks and improving essential underground infrastructure. These projects are part of a 40.1 million dollar capital budget approved by Leduc City Council in December 2025.
For outdoor recreation, the city is adding a new ball diamond at Corinthia Park specifically for little league players aged 12 and under. This addition is intended to increase the availability of bookable space for youth sports groups, such as those overseen by the Leduc Baseball Association.
Families can also look forward to improvements at Caledonia Park, where the current playground will be replaced. Construction is planned for June, and the new equipment, which will include slides and swings, is expected to be ready for children to use by July 2026. Additionally, a new North Shore Outlook and multiway connection will be built along Telford Lake, providing a year-round, car-free route with scenic seating linked to the existing trail system.
Beyond surface improvements, crews will begin work on several underground projects to maintain city services. This includes replacing aging watermain infrastructure in Linsford Park and installing new stormwater lines at 54 Avenue and 50 Street to reduce the risk of localized flooding. Pressure-reducing valves will also be installed along Black Gold Drive to help manage the city water network.
In a Mayor’s Update published May 12, 2026, Mayor Lars Hansen highlighted these developments as part of the city’s ongoing commitment to building community connections both above and below the ground.
