A parking lot at Mundy Park will be closed next month as the city conducts repaving work.
The lot, accessible from Hillcrest Street near the Mundy Park field house, will be shut down from mid-September to early October for improvements that will include drainage, a pedestrian pathway and re-paving.
Visitors to Mundy are encouraged to park at the lots near Spani Pool, accessible from Hillcrest Street, or the east parking lot at Mariner Way and Chilko Drive.
Como Lake Park’s parking lot will also be closed in early September to the middle of the month for similar repaving work. Alternative parking can still be accessed at the north end of the park at Gatensbury Street and Grover Avenue.

GET AN INSIDER’S LOOK AT MUNDY PARK
You can learn more about the trees and plants, and the animals they support in Mundy Park, during a guided walking tour next month led by environmental educator Shelly Frick.
The program is offered to those who have not visited the popular Coquitlam park before or want to learn more about it, said the city in a press release. There will also be a draw for a first aid kit that can be used while exploring local parks and green spaces around the community.
The guided walk will take place between 10:30 a.m. and noon Sept. 13. The cost is $5 and participants will meet at Dogwood Pavilion (1655 Winslow Ave.).
Pre-registration for the program is required. To register, go to www.coquitlam.ca/dogwood, call 604-927-4386 or drop in at the Dogwood Pavilion to register in person.
