SilverStar Road-Wild Fire Reduction Work
Wildfire Risk Reduction treatments are scheduled to take place in Silver Star Park along portions of Silver Star Road. Works could occur as early as September 5th and are scheduled through to mid-November.
Treatments will include danger tree removal, removal of understorey trees and ladder fuels as well as surface fuel clean-up. The public can expect to see signage, crews and equipment working and pile burning. Temporary traffic stoppages, speed limit reductions and trail closures may also be in place. Please respect all signage and traffic management personnel to help keep crews safe.
These treatments are designed to reduce negative impacts in the event of a wildfire and improve both public and emergency responder safety, while managing for important ecological, recreational, and cultural values.
Funding for these projects is provided by the Crown Land Wildfire Risk Reduction program; please visit this website to learn more about Wildfire Risk Reduction projects.
