In addition, all waterfront parking lots will return to regular operation within a week.

The boardwalk reopened last month.

The West Beach parking lot will remain closed for now.

“We are hoping that with the reopening of the White Rock Pier and a return to normal with parking, people will behave responsibly and safely and follow the guidance of our provincial health officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry,” Deputy Mayor Scott Kristjanson said in a release.

On Tuesday, health officials reported 11 new cases of COVID-19 in B.C. and no new deaths.
