Wedgewood Community Park Improvements
Escambia County is planning recreational and stormwater management improvements for the Wedgewood Community Park area of Pensacola. The county encourages community participation and will hold public meetings to solicit community input and discuss the proposed improvements at the 52-acre Wedgewood Community Park located at 6405 Wagner Road in Pensacola.
Potential improvements may include:
- New park entrance, road, and parking lot
- Sidewalk and walking path improvements
- Walking track with historical imagery and art
- New and enhanced sports facilities (pickleball courts, softball/baseball field renovations, basketball court enhancements, disc golf course, multi-use field updates)
- Pole barn for a produce market
- Community garden/raised garden beds
- Community swimming pool
- Stormwater management improvements
This project is currently in the design phase, which is scheduled for completion in late 2026. The construction phase is anticipated to begin in early 2027 and conclude in 2028.
These improvements are made possible through funding provided by Escambia County's 1% Local Option Sales Tax (L.O.S.T.) and Resilient Florida Grant Program, which help advance community improvements and long-term stormwater and recreational resilience.
