Description

PROJECT BACKGROUND: Crescent Falls Provincial Recreation Area (PRA) underwent infrastructure refurbishment over the course of 2022 to 2024. After these upgrades were completed and the site opened to the public in the summer of 2024, (Central Region) Parks Division identified a need for additional site enhancements based on public use. Operations has requested the addition of a guardrail barrier to one section of the viewing structure to mitigate public access concerns as well as the replacement of the existing maintenance access hatch with a lighter-weight alternative.
