Seasonal Road Closures in Mill Creek Park

/in , /by

Effective Monday, December 1, 2025, several roads within Mill Creek Park will close to vehicular traffic for the winter season:

  • High Drive (between Chestnut Hill Drive and West Cohasset Drive)
  • Chestnut Hill Drive (between Canfield Road and High Drive)
  • Calvary Run Drive (between Belle Vista Avenue and Milton Avenue)

During the seasonal closure, these roads remain open for recreational use, including hiking, cross-country skiing, and sledding. In addition to creating unique winter recreation opportunities, these closures provide important operational and environmental benefits, such as reducing snow and ice removal costs and minimizing the environmental impact of deicing salt.

All roads will reopen in the spring as weather and conditions allow.

Winter driving can be challenging as snow and ice create slippery surfaces. Roads with limited shoulders, steep grades, and a lack of guardrails can become particularly hazardous. Mill Creek MetroParks encourages all motorists to use caution when traveling on MetroParks roadways during winter months.
