Parks Service Alerts
NOTE: The SCRD is aware that people are continuing to use the closed bridges listed below. These bridges are not safe. Please obey the signage on site.
The Gorge Bridge at Cliff Gilker Park is currently closed due to a significant crack in its main support beam.
This bridge is scheduled for replacement as part of the Cliff Gilker Bridges & Trail Remediation project, which is set to begin next year. Read more about this project at letstalk.scrd.ca/cliff-gilker
Please stay tuned for updates. A map with alternative routes can be found below.
The access trail to Wreck Beach off Rosemary Lane on Keats Island is closed for use until a hazardous section of overhanging uphill slope can be remediated.
The access path has been deemed a high-risk area for public use which could pose life safety issues. This determination is following professional engineering assessment of the area.
The Kleindale Bridge, located on the Suncoaster Trail remains closed due to user safety and a deteriorating bridge structure. Trail users can re-route along Highway 101 to the Lions Park trails to re-connect to the Suncoaster Trail.
The Vinebrook Bridge, located on the Suncoaster Trail remains closed due to risk of imminent failure.
Trail users can re-route along Highway 101. Users are reminded to follow off-road vehicle regulations and to proceed with caution when using the highway. Engineering Services have been engaged, and assessments are currently underway.
The initial assessment phase of the project is expected to be completed by the end of March 2025.
The sports field is open for use but will continue to be closely monitored for damage as we move into the maintenance phase of the recovery program. We ask that visitors keep dogs off the sports field.
The bridge at Chaster House in Elphinstone was damaged during the atmospheric river event in late 2021. Like the bridges at Cliff Gilker Park, incremental damage was discovered due to heavy rains and creek volumes.
