The City does not anticipate the station will reopen.

Sandbag fill locations were set up in response to localized flooding caused by high water conditions along the Trent-Severn Waterway.

The City reminds residents to continue to exercise caution near the Otonabee River, creeks and other waterways, as banks may be unstable due to high and fast-moving water.

Parks Canada's water management team continues to actively monitor water levels, flows and weather forecasts along the Trent-Severn Waterway.
