The City of Owen Sound is closing the Harrison Park Entrance Road on Monday to remove ash trees.
As of 5:30 a.m., the road at 1st Street East will be closed at the park entrance pillars to get rid of high priority ash trees.
“All the trees being removed are infected by the Emerald Ash Borer,” says the city.
While the work is ongoing, access to the small parking lot from 1st Street East will still be available and pedestrians can use the Freedom Trail as well as the Fitness Trail along 4th Street East to access the park.
The road will reopen later that day at 4 p.m.
