Montville Community Park Playground Closed Through Early October

MONTVILLE, NJ — Families heading to Montville Community Park will have to skip the playground for the next few weeks while the township makes improvements.

The playground at 130 Changebridge Road closed Thursday as crews install new safety surfacing, according to the township.

Officials said the playground is expected to remain closed until approximately Oct. 1, although that timeline depends on weather and construction conditions.

“We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make these improvements to provide a safer and improved play area for our community,” the township said.

The playground is one of several amenities at Community Park, which also includes grass and turf fields, basketball courts, a beach volleyball court, pavilion, hiking paths and walking trails.

The closure is worth keeping in mind for families planning a park visit as September continues.
