FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — The laneway into the North Peace Leisure Pool from 100th Street is closed for the High On Ice Festival.

The pool remains open, and Centennial Park is considered a construction zone, as active machinery will be working around the park.

The city asks that residents use the entrance located on 96th Avenue to park at the pool or behind the Curling Club and Pomeroy Sports Centre.
