Communities across Canada that have a significant issue with homelessness and will have increased supports for their vulnerable populations through Reaching Home. This is accomplished by mobilizing partners at the federal, provincial/territorial and community levels, as well as the private and voluntary sectors, and other stakeholders, to address barriers to well-being faced by those who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness.

Okanese Trail will provide safety and security in the community. Presently we have no safe, public walking trails in community and people walking are exposed to motor vehicles and dust.

Saddle Lake Cree Nation (SLCN) is applying for $50,000 to fund the development of a Pedestrian Network Master Plan (PNMP) and Implementation Strategy. If awarded, SLCN will retain external expertise to support the planning process.

The intent of this project is to improve active transportation modes, specifically cycling, within the Township by connecting two major east-west routes, New York Central Trail and Craig Street. The improved north-south connection of Hamilton Road will allow commuters to navigate around and through the Village of Russell and increase connectivity to surrounding regions, specifically the City of Ottawa via Craig Street.

The not-for-profit Coastal Link Trail Inc., in partnership with the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission, The City of Saint John and the NB Department of Natural Resource and Energy Development, will be rehabilitating and re-purposing 4.8-km of former NB Railway lands along the shoreline of the City of Saint John's Spruce lake, which will then connect to 2.2 Kilometers of new unbuffered bike lanes along the Ocean Westway Road in the City’s south end. The 7 Kilometer addition of greenway trail and buffered bike lanes in the City of Saint John will create a connection to the existing Nationwide Trans Canada Trail Network, and the City's existing Active transportation network that currently ends near the City's center. The Addition of the new trail and unbuffered bike lanes being proposed for this project will also will create a contiguous AT network from the South end of the City (Spruce Lake) to the North east end, ultimately creating a balanced transportation network that meets the needs of all community members with a variety of AT options which include cycling and pedestrian traffic. The Not-for- Profit Coastal Link Trai Inc. is the Organization responsible for constructing New Brunswick’s provincially recognized Signature Trail, the Coastal Link Trail, across South West New Brunswick. When complete, the 171-km trail it will connect the East Coast Green way in Calais, Maine, USA to the rest of the Trans Canada Trail Network, that ends in Saint John, NB. When it is done, it will be the longest International Trail network in the world, and also a part of Canada’s Nationally recognized Trans Canada Trail network. The Spruce Lake to Ocean West Way section of the trail is a critical connection of the regional trail network. The Trail will travers the entire region by creating new active transportation routes from the existing trail segment in St. Stephen, NB to the Trans Canada Trail in Saint John.

The proposed design study will clearly identify community needs through public engagement and determine next steps for best value. A perimeter trail around the neighbourhood will allow for greater safety and community well being.
