CPA Projects – Detailed Report

This is a continuation of Phase I of the long-delayed renovation of Hurd Field, which aims to address the many safety issues that currently exist, meet all current ADA guidelines and best practices, and provide a safe connection from the Minuteman Bikeway through Hurd Field to the Arlington Reservoir. Specifically, Phase II funding will be used to support elements not funded in Phase I, including field lighting and batting cages, various site amenities, parking lot lighting, plantings, and porous paving. Hurd Field is one of only four lighted fields under Park & Recreation Commission jurisdiction, so replacement of field lighting is of paramount importance to Arlington’s youth and adult sports organizations that rely on and heavily utilize this recreational area.
