Boardwalk replacement shuts down portion of Westwood Lake Trail
NANAIMO — A section of trail at popular Westwood Lake Park in Nanaimo will be closed for the next several weeks while crews replace a 75-metre boardwalk.
The city of Nanaimo’s Manager of Parks Operations Al Britton says the boardwalk adjacent to Arbot Road near the tennis courts will be replaced starting on Monday, Dec. 12 through Dec. 23.
He says the section of trail will re-open during the Christmas break, then close again, potentially through the end of Jan.
“This is probably our least amount of time that people are out walking around the park, so least disruption to the least amount of users,” said Britton.
