Agreement Value:
$50,000.00
Agreement Date:
Feb 25, 2025 - Mar 31, 2027
Description:
The La Ronge Safe Active Transportation and Pedestrian Safety Plan (ATPSP) will address gaps in the trail network and provide a strategy for the development of a healthy, safe, and enjoyable trail and multi-use pathway network throughout the reserve Lac La Ronge #156 and Kitsaki #156B.
The purpose of the ATPSP will be to:
• Develop a strategy for Lac La Ronge to prioritize the development of safe and intuitive multi-use pathway connections between key destinations within the community and to the neighbouring communities.
• Create a baseline inventory of where members live, their main destinations they commute to, informal desire paths, and areas accessible by walking compared to areas accessible by driving.
• Identify and recognize community priorities around multi-use pathways, roadway design with pedestrians in mind, and safety considerations.
• Inform future development, design, and connectivity of new subdivisions on reserve lands.
• Identify a priority project that LLRIB can construct in the years following through capital funding.
To support the ATPSP, the Lac La Ronge Lands Committee and a Project Management Team (PMT) would be created for this project specifically. The PMT would be comprised of relevant stakeholders, including elected officials, lands staff, infrastructure and housing staff, a youth representative, and an Elder representative. The community will be involved throughout the project through community engagement events both in-person and virtually.
