Boosting Active Transit in Rural Areas
People will have more access to active transportation options after an investment of more than $500,000 from the federal and municipal governments in the Municipality of the County of Kings. This was announced by MP Kody Blois and Mayor Dave Corkum.
With this investment, trailheads and access points to the Harvest Moon Trail will be enhanced, improving active transportation connections to schools, employers, residential areas, restaurants, healthcare facilities and other services. Other active transportation projects in the region include three studies to be conducted on the topics of safe routes to schools, increasing active transportation options in the region, and improving access to active transportation on the Kingston/Greenwood Bridge. Finally, signage designating bicycle routes throughout 62 km of shared roads in the region will be improved.
These projects will result in increase opportunities for residents to engage in active transportation to navigate their rural communities.
