The company also noted that plexiglass has been installed throughout the casino and masks are mandatory for all staff and guests.
“Due to the current heightened health and safety guidelines – our Food & Beverage outlets will remain closed,” the company added.
Identification will be required upon entering any of the company’s facilities for contact tracing purposes in the event an individual is diagnosed with COVID-19, the company stated.
“By retaining contact information for each guest frequenting a facility, Casino New Brunswick can quickly and effectively support public health authorities to identify others that may have come into contact with the diagnosed individual.”
The casino’s new hours of operations are from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m. seven days a week.
