The Town of Manchester is embarking on an exciting project to renovate and upgrade Charter Oak Park West. The improvements are community-driven and informed by recommendations from the 2021 Town of Manchester Parks and Facilities Master Plan. At that time, survey results showed that Charter Oak Park is one of the most used parks in Town, with 56% of respondents saying they have used the park for recreation.

In 2017 the Town completed $2 million worth of improvements to the eastern portion of the park including new playgrounds, basketball and tennis courts, a revamped softball field, a new music garden, improved walkways and bike paths, bathrooms, a pavilion, and more.

The next phase of construction will include improvements to modernize the western portion of the park. The project will bring exciting elements to this location including a turf soccer field, an all-wheel park, a pump track, bathrooms, and a new parking area.

Phase 1 of the project will be the new entrance, parking and the turf soccer field. Construction is scheduled to begin on this phase Summer of 2024.

Phase 2 of the project will be the all-wheel park, the pump track and associated landscaping. Construction is scheduled to begin on this phase Spring of 2025.

To the right, you'll find information on the project's team, timeline, and historical resources giving you an overview of what's in store for this project.

Below you'll find three tabs. A Project Updates tab with important resources and reports to keep you up-to-date on the project's progress. The Share Your Ideas Board tab asks residents to share their thoughts/perspectives/opinions on the all-wheel park and pump track design. This interactive board lets you upload photos and like/comment on other's ideas. The Survey tab will offer the opportunity for the community to engage with the park developer and Town staff as we look for input and feedback on the project.
