Parking & park access

Plan for your access needs.

Planning a visit with a wheelchair, mobility aid or other access needs? Start here. Exact accessible parking spaces, step-free routes and restroom features have not yet been verified for this guide.

Parking & drop-off

The park address is 500 South Fruitridge Avenue. Directions lead to the park, not to a verified accessible parking space.

Ask before traveling: Which open designated accessible space is closest to your destination? Is there room for a van lift or ramp, and where can a passenger be dropped off?

Paths & places to rest

Paved paths are available, but pavement alone does not confirm a step-free or wheelchair-accessible route. Slopes, distances and construction detours have not been verified.

Ask about your route: Confirm surfaces, curb ramps, gradients, distance and places to sit between your parking space and destination.

Restrooms

The city’s park map labels restrooms. Current opening hours, step-free entry and accessible toilet features have not been verified.

Ask about facilities: Confirm the nearest open restroom on your route and the features you need, such as grab rails, transfer space or changing facilities.

Playground, pool & train

The pool is closed for construction, and Oakley Playground redevelopment is underway. Read the current park updates.

For a train ride: Ask the Torner Center about boarding, whether a transfer is required, mobility-device storage and any assistance available.

Check your route with park staff.

Tell staff which place you want to reach and what you need—for example, a step-free route, a shorter distance or room to unload a wheelchair lift.
