Many city parks and trails getting a face lift this fall

The City of Windsor invested $2-million to revamp some multi-use trails throughout the city.

Trails within Central Park, East Riverside Park, Little Rive Corridor, Meadowbrook Park, Calderwood park and Patrick Maguire all got a face lift this fall.

“These trails are very highly used by residents in our ward, so expanding and refurbishing them will give residents an improved and safer place for physical activity. These enhancements will allow for greater access to leisure activities, which in turn encourages healthy living," said Ward 7 Councillor Jeewen Gill.

New benches and garbage and recycling receptacles were also installed throughout the parks. Parks staff also planted more than 200 trees and hundreds of native plants and shrubs in the area.

Construction took place earlier this fall and will be wrapped up by November 30, 2021.

In total, more than seven kilometers of asphalt multi-use trails are being added or upgraded this autumn within the following community parks.
