Greater Moncton residents will return to their local parks and trails today.

They’re being reopened in the Cities of Moncton and Dieppe, and the Town of Riverview.

This comes after the province reopened provincial crown land.

A reminder that the ground is still very dry and there’s a high fire risk.

Provincial burn bans remain in effect, which means no backyard fires are permitted.

You should also use caution when operating equipment or a vehicle and when smoking.
