As part of this work, environmental restoration is a priority. This will include removing current trees, grasses and shrubs which will be replanted in a way that improves the ecosystems onsite. All work is being completed in coordination with the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, and the Toronto Region Conservation Authority.
Construction is underway and will take place in stages. It is expected to be completed by fall 2023. Different areas of the park will be closed to the public with onsite signage and fencing during each stage. The existing parking lot, artificial turf fields and pavilion will remain open throughout the construction.

Trail upgrades are underway:

Improvements began in the fall of 2021 and are expected to be completed by this summer. Upgrades include paving existing trails, replacing the Nevada Park Bridge and adding seating, planting and signage. These trail improvements are funded by the Government of Canada’s COVID-19 Resilience Infrastructure Stream of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program, and by the Government of Ontario.

During construction, access to some trail areas will be restricted and site conditions may be affected. View the Disruption Alert for more details.
