Barber Park

Splash Pad and Parking

Madrid CPWG Landscape Architects and Engineers worked with Architectural Design Collaborative (ADC) and TEAM Engineering to provide design assistance, site permitting, Health Department Permitting, and Landscape Architect services for the playground, splash pad, and parking improvements at Barber Park.

The design involved the renovation of an existing playground, the addition of a splash pad, and more parking spaces. Our fun and family-friendly design included features such as a rubberized play surface for the playground equipment/swings, shade structures for protection from the sun, and a fenced-in area around the splash pad with plenty of benches.

The Madrid CPWG designed improvements include:

• 40 new asphalt parking spaces in the South Parking Area
• New sidewalks, matched to existing sidewalks
• A 4000-gallon water tank reservoir
• Splash Park pump equipment with filtration system
• Chlorine and pH adjustment system
• An enclosure to protect the controls
• A new chain link fence with gates around the splash pad area

The design of the playground and splash pad areas were coordinated with Orange County. Electrical supply to the splash pad control unit was designed and coordinated with the local utility company. Yard drain type inlets were incorporated into the design and were connected to an existing stormwater inlet for drainage. Safeswap anchoring systems were used on the Splash Pad features.

CPWG Splash Pad water features include:

• 96” High Jet in center
• 72” High Single Loop Jet
• 36” High Bubbler Jets
• 24” Bubbler Jet
• Chaise Lounges
