Casorso-Barrera Road Multi-Use Corridor
A four meter wide off-road multi-use pathway is under design for Casorso and Barrera Roads between Gordon Dr. and Lakeshore Rd. The 800 metre pathway will be constructed on the north side and will connect Gordon Dr. and Lakeshore Rd. pathway corridors.
Public Consultation More than 80 residents attended an open house in February to provide their feedback on the preliminary design. The proposed multi-use pathway was well recieved.
Detailed design is now underway with construction to begin in the fall.
Proposed Schedule: Construction: Fall 2010 Contractor: to be determined Consultant: Integrated Design Cost: $1.4 million
The City was successful in receiveing 50 per cent of the funding from the provincial government's LocalMotion program.
Background In keeping with the City's vision for an active transportation network throughout the city, the Casorso Road and Barrera pathway will provide a healthy & green mode of transportation for all users of all ages and all abilities.
The City is developing a series of multi-use pathways and sidewalks that lend to sustainable cycling and pedestrian oriented infrastructure. These will link key areas of the city and connect neighbourhoods, town centres, parks and schools.
