State Parks Announces Steps to Reduce Crowds to Help Slow Down Spread of Coronavirus

California State Parks announced on March 24 that it is taking additional safety measures to reduce crowds and help prevent the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus). As per the press release:

“Many state parks and beaches received record visitation over the weekend which made it impossible for the public to implement appropriate social distancing practices. As a result, the department is working closely with local county and public health officials to modify park operations by closing vehicular traffic at some park units to reduce the density of visitors. A list of closures can be found online at www.parks.ca.gov/FlattenTheCurve. State Park Peace Officers, in cooperation with allied law enforcement entities, will continue patrolling all state park units and enforcing all regulations.”
