The Town of Kingsville has installed a multi-use pathway to improve the safety, accessibility, and connectivity of the route. The improvements were made possible by an investment of over $1 million from the federal government through the Active Transportation Fund (ATF).
Through this investment, 3.65 km of new multi-use pathway has been completed, including the installation of safety curbs and new lighting on Road 2 East in Kingsville. The pathway is providing safer access to the local active transportation network and greater connectivity by linking Ruthven to the downtown core of Kingsville.
This investment is part of Canada's National Active Transportation Strategy, which aims to create and improve pathways, bike lanes, and pedestrian bridges all over the country. It's a big step towards healthier living and building resilient communities, making a better-connected Canada.
