Wrightsville Beach is currently witnessing a bustling construction phase. The rec area is seeing the construction of pickleball and tennis courts along with the paving of new parking lots. These construction activities will cause intermittent closures from December through February.

Uncover the Construction Journey at Wrightsville Beach's Rec Area

Phase 1: Construction at the Rec Area

Construction is in full swing at Wrightsville Beach's rec area. The area is being transformed to accommodate pickleball and tennis courts, along with the paving of new parking lots. This is an exciting development for the local community and sports enthusiasts.

These facilities will provide a great space for people to engage in their favorite sports and enjoy the outdoors. The construction work is being carried out with great precision and care to ensure the highest quality.

Phase 2: Next Phase of Construction

The next phase of construction involves the addition of five new pickleball courts and the installation of lights for the existing courts. This will enhance the playing experience and allow for evening games as well.

However, this phase also requires improved parking facilities. Reconfiguration and paving of the park parking lot are scheduled to begin on Wednesday, Dec. 4. During this time, visitors will need to utilize the field where the Farmers’ Market is typically held for parking.

Sequential Construction

Once the park parking lot is completed, the work will move on to the lot adjacent to the Fran Russ Recreation Center and Town Hall. This sequential approach ensures a smooth progress of the construction project.

The town is aiming to complete the entire construction by the end of February 2025, but this is subject to weather conditions. The construction team is working hard to meet the deadline and deliver the completed facilities to the community.
