• Project Overview

    In 2021, the Department of Parks ad Recreation accepted a land transfer for the Davis Ford Park site located at 5901 Davis Ford Road in the Occoquan district. The site is a former stormwater management facility that was under the management of the County's Department of Public Works. the former pond on the site was filled in 2020 when it was no longer needed. In May 2023, Occoquan Supervisor Kenny Boddye directed staff to begin planning to develop a master plan for the site. The master plan process will include multiple chances for public input including public meetings and an online survey.

Design Concept 1

Concept 1 utilizes the existing entrance to the site and focuses development on trails, a linear edible forest, and individual play stations built into the landscape along the trail. The existing lawn space will be replanted as a managed meadow space for pollinators and other wildlife.

Design Concept 2

Concept 2 creates a separate entrance for the public from the existing utility access and takes advantage of the existing open lawn area for a playground, dog park, and open play lawn. This concept also includes an accessible edible forest loop experience as well as a natural surface loop trail.

Design Concept 3

Concept 3 retains the edible forest and natural surface trail loops from the other concepts, but moved the playground into the wooded area for a more nature centric experience. This concept also adds a pumptrack and skills area for mountain bikers.
