Bryte Park Master Plan Implementation

Estimated Completion: TBD (construction dependent on grant agreement)

The City of West Sacramento is pleased to announce that the construction contract for the Bryte Park Improvements Project has been awarded to Bothman Construction.

Construction is anticipated to begin on July 1, 2026. Initial activities will include site mobilization, construction fencing, and preparation of the project area for improvements.

The Bryte Park Improvements Project will deliver significant upgrades to the park, including a new aquatic facility, improved recreational amenities, enhanced accessibility, new shade structures, landscaping, and other community-focused improvements.

The City will continue to provide project updates as construction progresses and appreciates the community's patience and support throughout the construction process.

In September 2024, the City was awarded 15 million dollars of grant funding for the National Park Service’s Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership  (ORLP) Grant Program.

Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact and Notice of Intent to Request Release of Funds

Project Update - June 2026

In preparation for upcoming construction at Bryte Park, irrigation has been turned off throughout most of the park as of June 29. Irrigation will remain active in the area that is planned to stay open during construction.

As a result, visitors may notice the turf beginning to brown or become dormant. This is an expected part of preparing the site for construction and does not indicate an irrigation malfunction.

Additional information about the construction schedule, park closure and available public areas will be shared as details are confirmed. Thank you for your patience as we prepare for these improvements.
