A park in Yorktown is re-opening Saturday following a three-month closure caused by a sinkhole.
Woodlands Legacy Fields will reopen after a sinkhole at the Algonquin Enbridge gas transmission pipeline emerged on Christmas Eve.
Officials poured fill materials into the sinkhole to ensure the support for the pipeline and say they’ll be doing semi-weekly aerial patrols of the gas, monthly site visits and electrical resistance surveys to ensure that new sinkholes don't form.
A town board meeting is set for April 18 to provide an update on the pipeline’s progress.
