Owen Sound city staff have placed barricades at several waterfront areas and trails.
The high lake levels and active wave action, water and debris have created hazards on the trail for users on sections of the Waterfront Trail at Kelso Beach, the East Bayshore area and the Tom Thomson Trail.
The public is asked to avoid the closed-off areas until further notice. City staff will clean the debris and assess the trail when conditions allow.
The waterfront trail from the beach washroom to the splash pad is closed until conditions improve and debris is removed.
East Shore - The Waterfront Trail from the Grey Bruce Health Unit to 18th Street East at the Bayshore Community Centre, a section adjacent to the J. Irvine Park Playground on the north side of the Bayshore Community Centre, and the Tom Thomson Trail from the East Boat Launch to the CP trail are closed until conditions improve and debris is removed.
