A new high tech playground is coming to Water Tower Park in High River over the next couple of months.

Construction starts next week and should be done by the end of August.

High River Parks Supervisor Tannas Webb says the park has two super cool features.

"The zip line, there was a real strong sense they wanted a zip line, which is exciting because it's a different thing, something we don't have in Town. And certainly the accessibility of the play equipment which is so important to be inclusive for all users."

The park's being built by the Town and the Foothills Kinette's, who Webb says will be throwing a party to celebrate when they open the park later this Summer.
