TRAIL NEWS

Grandin Road trail crossing at the former Peter's Cartridge factory is now open ... After nearly two years of construction, the Grandin Rd. trail is now reopened, thanks to the $22 million King Ave. Bridge replacement project. This initiative has not only revitalized the trail but has also brought significant enhancements to the entire surrounding area.

One of the most notable improvements for trail enthusiasts is the elimination of a hazardous intersection. This was achieved by constructing a spacious tunnel beneath the road, ensuring both good visibility and a wide berm for safe passage. Additionally, a newly paved parking area, considerably larger than the previous gravel lot, has been introduced. From this lot, a paved path seamlessly connects to the trail.

The replacement of the bridge over the river is another highlight, featuring two expanded lanes for vehicular traffic and a generous, divided lane dedicated to cyclists and pedestrians. Moreover, the elevated bridge provides an opportunity for trail users to pause, dismount their bikes, and relish the scenic view of the river. These improvements collectively enhance the overall trail experience and contribute to the safety and enjoyment of both pedestrians and cyclists.
