The fields represent Phase 1 of a more than $12 million improvement project for the park.<\/p>\n<p>Still to come are an access road, a new parking lot, the completion of a new covered training facility, and a new traffic light.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether it\u2019s a child attending practice, a local team competing in a weekend tournament, or families cheering from the sidelines, these new turf fields will help more people enjoy sports year-round,\u201d Mayor Brenda Locke said in a press release. \u201cThis investment helps meet the growing demand for quality recreational facilities while strengthening Surrey\u2019s ability to host sporting events that benefit our local economy and community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fields started going in in the fall of 2025. The new multi-use pitches replace a pair of soccer-dedicated grass fields. The release noted the fields were often closed following heavy rains. The turf fields will remain open year round.<\/p>\n<p>According to the release, the 50-acre park on the west side of Cloverdale is \u201ca hub for sports in Surrey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The multi-use park has ball diamonds, a basketball court, a sports box, playgrounds, a bike park, a water playground, tennis courts, washrooms and change rooms, a fieldhouse, and multiple grass and synthetic fields for many different sports and activities.<\/p>\n<p>The new parking lot will be nestled beside the new turf fields and in front of Surrey United Soccer Club\u2019s new covered training facility. The 110-space parking lot is expected to be completed by November. There will also be an intersection with a new traffic light going in on 64th Avenue at 170th Street.<\/p>\n<p>The new parking lot and traffic light will provide access to Surrey United\u2019s indoor facility. The building is expected to be completed by mid- to late-September.<\/p>\n<p>For more info about the CAP improvements, or other city projects, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.surrey.ca\/about-surrey\/capital-projects\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">visit surrey.ca\/capitalprojects.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New outdoor turf fields ready for fall season at Cloverdale Athletic Park Published 9:31 am Tuesday, September 8,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":888259,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194299],"tags":[49,48,87674],"class_list":["post-888258","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-surrey","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-surrey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/888258","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=888258"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/888258\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/888259"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=888258"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=888258"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=888258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
