As part of its 10 year Master Plan, Friends of High Park Zoo is redesigning and redeveloping the Zoo. Phase 2 of the Master Plan involves the renovation of the recreation trail known as Deer Pen Road, which runs through the High Park Zoo. This work entails resurfacing, the installation of a much-needed storm drainage system using environmentally-sensitive plant and stone bioswales to improve drainage of water on the site, naturalization of the trail with planting of new trees and native plant species, as well as accessibility and safety improvements to the trail.
