Temporary closure of Ballantyne Boat Launch and D’Aubigny Trail Access

BRANTFORD, ON – Ballantyne Drive River Access Point and boat launch and D’Aubigny trail access, located north of Spalding Drive, will be closed beginning in mid-July while construction and site enhancements are completed. The access point, boat launch, and trail are expected to reopen at the end of summer, pending construction progress. Vehicle and pedestrian access to the area will not be permitted during this closure. The Ballantyne Drive River Access Point will not be accessible during this time. 

Signage indicating the closure will be posted at the D’Aubigny Creek soccer fields and adjacent parking lot. For the public’s safety, trail users and paddlers are asked to avoid the area and, during this work, are encouraged to use the alternative river access point at Cockshutt Bridge on Erie Avenue. Please visit www.Brantford.ca/Trails to learn more about our trail system and to review the trail map that outlines access points, washroom locations, points of interest and more.

We appreciate the public’s patience and cooperation during this work.
