Fencing erected this week is blocking access to part of Ontario Place and a group opposed to redevelopment of the site is shocked at the closure and angry that no formal notice was given.

Province expected to resubmit proposed redevelopment plans in the wake of consultation meetings with the public earlier this year.

Toronto is reviewing plans to turn Ontario Place into a sprawling private water park and spa with underground parking for more than 2,000 vehicles — a project that would require nearly 850 trees on the grounds be cut down.
