Thanks to a reduced fire hazard Knox Mountain Drive will officially reopen to vehicle access starting Saturday morning.
Park users using Knox Mountain Drive are asked to remain vigilant and report any activity that could put the public at risk.
Bikers and hikers may have gotten used to Knox Mountain being closed to vehicle traffic for most of the season, meaning drivers are asked to remain cautious and stay within the 30 km/h speed limit.
Knox Mountain Drive is open to vehicles 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday to Saturday, and noon to 9 p.m. on Sundays. Knox Mountain Park is open daily between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.
Residents and visitors are reminded that campfires and barbecues are not permitted in city parks, with the exception of barbecues on beaches. Smoking is also prohibited in all parks and public spaces.
