Trans Mountain Pipeline Closure
On April 19, 2022, the Redwoods Golf Course faced a temporary reduction in services while the Trans Mountain Expansion Project construction crossed through the golf course property. Pipeline construction was ongoing through to mid-2023 with golf course renovations that followed. As of May 2024, all facilities at the Redwoods are open to the public!
The Pipeline Route
The pipeline route went from the southwestern tip of our property near the dogleg on hole 9 through to the northeastern corner of our property on the lower half of the course by the red tee deck on hole 5. The overall route will impact holes 5 and 9-15.
Course Enhancements
We took advantage of the temporary disruption to golf by advancing extensive course enhancements around our property. The most significant project that we tackled was completely upgrading six entire fairways with updated irrigation, new drainage, soil and fresh turf. The six lucky fairways are holes 5, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 15.
In addition to brand new fairways, we fully renovated three tee decks which greatly increased in size with their new design; this will give us more mobility when setting the tees each day and as a result, will help to maintain the tee decks in fantastic condition all year round. The tee decks that received major upgrades are on holes 3, 12 and 17. Our team also completed significant improvements to bunkers around the course where we removed the sand from all of our bunkers and cleaned it so that it is in perfect condition for reopening.
Last but not least, we executed substantial renovations to our Driving Range which reopened in May of 2023. Learn more about the Range renovations.
