Everyone craving a bit more green space can take a stroll at the Irving Nature Park this weekend.
The park, along with Wolastoq Park, will reopen Saturday with new rules to respect physical distancing.
J.D. Irving, Ltd., which operates the parks, says users must stay two metres or six feet apart at all times.
All trails are now one-way and people are encouraged to consult the trail map and read the signage.
