Скачать или смотреть Nanaimo council moves funds away from plan to light section of E&N trail

Plans to light a section of the E&N Trail next year won’t be going ahead, as funding has been reallocated to other to be determined projects. A section of the trail between Northfield and Rock City roads had been scheduled to receive lighting upgrades in 2026.

Instead, around a million dollars of funding will be redirected into other pedestrian and active transportation projects next year.
We spoke with Nanaimo city councillor Tyler Brown, who moved the motion that led to the change. We also hear from Phil Hall, president of the Nanaimo area cycling coalition, and Jamie Rose, manager of transportation with the city of Nanaimo.
