As Governor Phil Murphy continues to lift restrictions across the state, he has announced that spray parks and playgrounds can open on July 2, 2020.

Now that these restrictions are being lifted, the Township of North Bergen will reopen municipal parks to the public on Thursday, July 2. This includes all playgrounds, sports courts, and exercise equipment located within the parks.

The township’s spray parks will open at 25% capacity. Attendants will be on hand to ensure that capacity is not exceeded.

Policeman’s Park on 38th Street has undergone a complete overhaul and will reopen in July with new features. In addition, the township will open a brand new park on Paterson Plank Road within the next few weeks.

Parks will be open from dawn to sundown. Residents are urged to maintain social distancing for their own health and the health of others.
