More information

During this time, sections of the trail between Decou Road and Ireland Road will be unavailable to ensure public safety while work is underway. Trail users are asked to avoid the area and use alternate routes where possible.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation while this important work is completed.

*Drilling boreholes involves creating small, narrow holes in the ground so engineers can study soil and underground conditions. This work helps determine ground stability and supports the planning and design of future infrastructure improvements.
