The Rotary Park bridge connecting the park with Elliot Street in Oshawa is closed until further notice, the City announced on November 4.
A structural assessment identified concerns that require the pedestrian bridge to remain closed. The notice does not provide a reopening date or a repair schedule.
Nearby routes remain the alternative
The City encourages community members to use nearby routes via John Street and Gibb Street while the connection is unavailable.
People planning a walk through the area should allow for the changed route rather than assuming that the bridge can be crossed. The announcement concerns the pedestrian bridge, not a closure of every park entrance or surrounding street.
The Rotary Park bridge notice apologizes for the inconvenience and directs enquiries to Service Oshawa. Residents can check the City’s official announcement below for any further information about the closure.
