Public Advisory: T’Railway Provincial Park Reopens from Glovertown to Gander

The Honourable Ross Wiseman, Minister of Environment and Conservation, advises the public that the section of the T’Railway Provincial Park from Glovertown to Gander is reopened for public use.

Construction is ongoing between Jumpers Brook and Gander and, therefore, this section remains closed. The section between Port Blandford and the Burin Peninsula Highway (near Goobies) also remains closed.

For safety reasons, the public is asked to refrain from using the T'Railway on the remaining closed sections until the repairs have been completed and the sections have been reopened. The minister is also asking the public for their continued patience and cooperation in staying off the closed sections while work is ongoing.
