The Bucks County Department of Parks and Recreation is undertaking a Comprehensive Recreation, Parks, and Open Space Plan (CRPOS) and is looking for input from people who live near and visit the Bucks County Parks System. It is important to understand how the park system is used, what works well, and what could be improved to make it easier for people to access the parks, recreational facilities, historic sites, and nature centers that comprise the 9,000+ acre county park system. The results of the survey will help with ensuring that all parks meet the standards residents and users need and expect.

Residents can get involved by using their phone, tablet, or computer to visit https://metroquestsurvey.com/5fa1 and complete the survey. Please help us by distributing this survey link and promoting the survey.

The County will provide regular updates on its project website (www.buckscounty.gov/ParkPlan) about the project, timeline, and opportunities for the public to get involved.
