Mayor Rick Goldring says the money will help enhance connectivity and accessibility for riders.
“Recognizing it’s a multi-purpose pathway, we need to widen it to make sure that it’s safe for both pedestrians and cyclists,” he said. “We’re going to find some sort of way to have on-road connection from Warwick and Francis all the way up to Plains Road as well.”
