The waterlogged Toronto Islands will finally reopen to the public on July 31.
The popular tourist destination was virtually shut down in early May after flooding caused by heavy rains and rising water levels in Lake Ontario
Permits for wedding and other events were cancelled and residents described seeing carp spawning on the roadways and trees falling down because the ground was too soft to support them.
The city says regular summer ferry service and city recreation programs will resume July 31 and that Toronto Island Park will reopen along with beaches although some portions will remain off limits.
