In a nutshell<\/p>\n
Longhorn Park renovations are expected to be completed Oct. 29, Plano Park Planning Manager Katie Dunham said.<\/p>\n
Plano City Council approved the $2 million renovations in April 2025, per previous<\/a> reporting. Some of the new amenities include:<\/p>\n New playground<\/p>\n New pavilion<\/p>\n New trees<\/p>\n Exercise equipment<\/p>\n Upgraded backstop<\/p>\n Drainage improvements<\/p>\n Dunham said the project is in its final landscaping stage. She said improvements were funded by the city’s 2021 Bond<\/a>, which allocated $81.9 million for park improvements.<\/p>\n Also of note<\/p>\n Dunham said new solar-powered light poles are now standing and functional at Bob Woodruff Park North. The project is one of many renovations at the park, which is closed through February 2027, per previous<\/a> reporting.<\/p>\n Trails impacted by the new lighting project are now in the final grass installation and clean-up stage, Dunham said, with work expected to be completed within two weeks. She said the project should be completed by the beginning of November. <\/p>\n One more thing<\/p>\n
