There could be temporary road, trail or pathway closures at Point Pleasant Park the next two months as HRM forestry crews, park staff and contractors thin tree stands on fortifications.

A HRM release issued yesterday said the work under the Point Pleasant Park Comprehensive Plan will take place through the end of April and is being done to avoid potential damage from upturned roots resulting from wind-thrown trees. The release also noted clearing trees will re-establish traditional sightlines from the forts to the harbour.

HRM is advising those using the park to be cautious when passing by work areas.
