The bike pump track at Holly Park in East Ladner is getting a makeover.
The track was built in 2014 through a collaboration between the city and a local bike club.
The arrangement involved Delta providing materials and supplies, ranging from soil to drainage infrastructure, while community volunteers undertook the design and supplied the equipment and labour to build the track.
A memo to council from parks, recreation and culture director Ken Kuntz notes the city met with a number of new community volunteers in August who were not involved with the original construction of the track.
The group said the volunteer maintenance efforts had diminished over time, but they were willing to lead a resurrection of the volunteer effort by both youth and adults.
The community volunteers have undertaken preliminary design work and identified the necessary materials and equipment to take on the renovation.
The upgrades underway include: a safe course and more activities for younger riders.
The volunteers began reshaping the site with Delta's support.
Delta will provide the materials.
The volunteers expect to have the work completed by spring 2021.
