New Inclusive Playground Approved for Linconia Park

Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 14, 2026

The morning mist is burning off just in time for the crews to start staging equipment over at Linconia Park. It is a quiet start to the day, but the neighborhood beat is picking up speed as we head toward the weekend.

📰 The Lead

Last night’s Board of Supervisors meeting brought the news many parents in the Linconia neighborhood have been waiting for. The board gave the final green light for a total overhaul of the local playground, awarding a contract for new inclusive equipment that replaces the aging wooden structures. The project includes a poured-in-place rubber surface, which will be a welcome relief for anyone who has spent the last decade picking woodchips out of sneakers.

Beyond the standard swings and slides, the new design features sensory-rich play panels and ADA-accessible ramps, ensuring kids of all abilities can play together. Funding for the project was secured through a combination of township capital reserves and a state grant. Crews are expected to break ground in late June, with the goal of having the ribbons cut before the school year starts in the fall.
