Lower Burrell parks are closed until further notice because of coronavirus concerns.

City police posted the announcement Friday on the department’s Facebook page.

“Due to instances in which individuals utilizing our parks have not been following the (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) social distancing recommended guidelines, we have to take the unfortunate action to close all of our parks until further notice,” the post read, in part.

Because this is a fluid and ever changing situation, we do not have a timeline for the closures at this time.”
