The project involves integrated renovation, enhancement and safety improvement at each of the 17 rest stops and rest areas and upgrading of the signage along the entire route. Shelters, tables, benches, trash cans, bike racks, signage posts and signage will be replaced. The surface will also be levelled depending on the materials already in place at the rest areas and rest stops. Users (cyclists, pedestrians, four-wheeled scooter users, joggers, children, adults, seniors, people with reduced mobility, etc.) will feel safe and will be able to take advantage of facilities better suited to today’s needs with shelters, tables, benches, bike racks, repair stations, etc. The experience will be safer and more pleasant, which will encourage users to use active transportation via the La Campagnarde bike path, a 29-km trail that crosses four municipalities in Acton RCM (Saint-Théodore-d’Acton, Acton Vale, Roxton and Roxton Falls) and connects with Drummond RCM (Centre-du-Québec region) and Haute-Yamaska RCM (Estrie region).

The project aims to build a new 1.5 km multi-use path, which will facilitate access to businesses, services, amenities, and public activities in East Gwillimbury. In addition to the multi-use path, the project will include wayfinding signage, enhanced plantings and streetscape, a variety of seating types including benches and seating walls. The project also seeks to improve accessibility of the corridor for pedestrians and cyclists with enhanced pedestrian crossings and cross-rides and replacement of an existing pedestrian bridge.

Proposed project would upgrade 3.6km of paved multi-use pathway to an asphalt surface, which would connect to over 70km of already paved multi-use pathways. Other project activities include installing wayfinding signage to provide clear directions, travel times/distances, and information on attractions, activities, and pavement markers to further enable people to use active transportation.

This project will involve the planning and design of a pathway along East Vernon Road (Pottery Road to Silver Star Road) to connect points of interest in the community, such as BX Ranchlands, Black Rock Park and BX Cidery.

The Breaking Barriers to Active Transportation project will create meaningful opportunities for citizens to engage with cycling as a vital mode of transportation and contribute to making cycling more inclusive, equitable, and accessible. Through the project, we will evaluate existing City of Toronto plans and strategies including Toronto’s Vision Zero Strategy, Cycling Network Plan, and Seniors Strategy to identify gaps, solicit input from citizens, and develop and share new best practices. The project will culminate with an action plan that makes specific evidence-based recommendations to inform future plans and strategies.
