Lake Trail Pathway construction to begin in Courtenay soon

City of Courtenay crews are getting set to begin work on a new multi-use pathway in the community to grow its active transportation network.

Crews are set to break ground on first phase of the Lake Trail pathway on the week of September 15, this will include building a gravel multi-use path on the north side of Lake Trail Road between Lake Trail Community School and Arden Road.
Other components include improved bike lanes on the north side of Lake Trail Road between Arden Road and Webb Road, an upgraded bus stop and drainage improvements.
You can expect traffic along Lake Trail Road to move in single alternating lanes at times while work is ongoing.
A large portion of funding for this project comes from the City receiving a $500k grant last year through the BC government’s Active Transportation Infrastructure Grants program.
