The City of Windsor is planning a new multi-use trail around the Roseland Golf and Curling Club.
The proposed trail will be 3 metres wide and made of asphalt. The goal is to connect the trail with other existing trails and neighbourhoods including Southwood Lakes.
A consultant has been hired to complete the functional design study and confirm the best roads for the trail. The study will cost $50,000.
"Creating a multi-purpose trail system within the Roseland neighbourhood is the next step in improving our active transportation infrastructure. Doing so will allow for more residents to enjoy their walk, run and bike ride safely and more comfortably. Moving forward with a feasibility study allows us to examine our options and work with residents in the area to choose what works best for them," said Ward 1 Councillor Fred Francis. "The plan is to revitalize our infrastructure within the Roseland neighbourhood with more trails, more street lights and hopefully soon, a brand new clubhouse on the grounds of the golf course."
The report is expected by the end of summer. The project will be presented to the council as part of the 2023 proposed capital budget.
