This project involves the development of a total of 12 km of raised 1.8 m wide asphalt pathways that will connect the three residential subdivisions to one another, and connect the primary residential development areas of the community to primary community services, programs, and amenities, such as the health centre, child and family services, birthing centre, community centre, adult education centre, band office, pow wow arbour, and school. The subdivisions are situated approximately 9.5 km apart, with the remaining 2.5 km of multi-use pathway connecting to adjacent destinations such as the Amisk Cultural Centre, public beaches and recreation areas, the playgrounds, and other community facilities and amenities. The pathway will travel adjacent to and separate from Sturgeon Lake Road to provide increased user safety. The pathway will be constructed adjacent to the ditch and along the hillside on the south side of Sturgeon Lake Road. Construction will include grading the 12 km pathway to reduce elevation changes wherever possible. The pathway will include two four-season shelters that will be provided in case there is inclement weather while people are traveling along the pathway. Benches and garbage cans will also be provided at key locations to provide rest stops along the route. Lighting will be provided along the entire route to safely guide users along the path, and to provide additional safety and security.
