Trail updates

A section of the Waterfront Trail in Bowmanville is closed for trail rehabilitation.

The asphalt will be replaced from Bowmanville Avenue to 50 metres west of Bowmanville Avenue. The work started on June 19 and is expected to take two weeks to complete, weather permitting.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to maintain our trails. Work like this helps keep our community active, engaged and connected.
