The City of Barrie is reopening more outdoor recreational amenities.
Starting on Saturday, Barrie beaches will open up, but there won’t be any lifeguards until early July and waterfront parking lots will be reserved for Barrie residents only at this time.
In order to limit crowds at the beaches, waterfront parking lots are reserved for #Barrie residents only at this time. Vehicles must display a Resident Parking Pass. https://t.co/DMQeAVLnuc

Seasonal washrooms will reopen in a phased approach beginning with Centennial Park and Heritage Park next week.
The northbound lane of Barrie’s Lakeshore Drive from the Tiffin Boat Launch to Victoria Street will reopen to vehicles today.
A portion of the roadway was temporarily converted into additional space for pedestrians and cyclists as a pilot project to provide more space for people to be active and enjoy the outdoors, while maintaining a safe physical distance.
