Halton Region, the City of Burlington and the Town of Oakville are working together on the Burloak Waterfront Park master plan. The master plan was approved by Regional Council in April 2014. Implementation of the plan consists of a number of construction phases.
Additional construction work has been planned for late spring/early summer. These will take place in several stages.
During construction, the areas being constructed will be closed off to maintain safety. Duration of the closures will vary depending on the works. Park users will still be able to use most of the remaining park areas.
The following are the planned construction works:

Invasive vs. Native Species | ||||||||
Why are Invasive Tree and Shrub Species being removed? This project includes removing invasive tree and shrub species. These trees and shrubs are species that do not naturally grow in this area so they disrupt the natural environment and can take over from native species that are meant to be growing here. Removing these species that don't naturally grow here is needed to help restore and protect the natural ecosystem along our Lake Ontario shoreline.
