The West Hylebos wetlands is closed due to damage sustained during the wind storm this week.

There are several trees across the boardwalk and one large root from a tree took out a section of the boardwalk. Parks Department staff is developing a plan to make repairs and inspect other surrounding trees before the park re-opens.

“Its too early to tell how long it will be closed until we make a thorough assessment,” said  Chris Carrel, communications and government affairs coordinator.
