The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) has completed design work for a 3.5 km section of the Denman Cross Island Trail between Owl Crescent and the ferry terminal along East Road on Denman Island.
“I am very happy that the Province of B.C. continues to invest in active transportation, which has proven climate mitigation and health and safety benefits,” says Electoral Area A Director Daniel Arbour.
“Thank you to MLA Josie Osborne for supporting this great investment in the Denman Cross-Island Trail.”
Construction for this section is set to begin in fall 2023.
This section will consist of a 2.2 metre-wide gravel trail. The trail was designed to minimize tree removal and ecological impacts, however due to limited space within the road allowance, a total of 12 trees will need to be removed for this project.
The CVRD says it is committed to preserving natural landscapes, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by replanting trees and shrubbery annually, and providing safe active transportation methods throughout communities.
This trail construction project was made possible through funding from a B.C. Active Transportation Infrastructure grant and Community Works funding.
