Renovations to improve Columbia Park in Bend will begin Monday, according to a news release.

Due to the construction, several park pathways and trails may be rerouted during the project. In addition, several areas of the park may be closed temporarily during construction. Visitors to the park are asked to stay out of the closed areas, and follow the rerouted paths.

Construction will include the addition of new paths, sidewalks and a playground. The park’s turf field will also be reconditioned, and a new picnic shelter and plaza will be added during the construction.

The renovation project is expected to be completed in the fall.
