Federal, provincial, and municipal governments partner on active transportation in Wolfville

Wolfville, Nova Scotia, June 28, 2024 — Wolfville will gain more than 10 km of multi-use pathways after a combined investment of more than $3.3 million from the federal and provincial governments and the town of Wolfville.

This was announced today by MP Kody Blois, Minister John Lohr, and Mayor Wendy Donovan.

Funding will be used to develop a core active transportation network throughout the town of Wolfville. The network will include protected bike lanes, multi-use pathways, improved crossings, and connecting sidewalk segments.

The active transportation network will be designed for people of all ages and abilities. Once the project is complete, residents will be able to roll or stroll on safe, connected routes that will lead to key destinations in town and link to the provincial Blue Route cycling network.

This new infrastructure will give Wolfville residents more ways to get around the community, decrease greenhouse gas emissions, and reduce traffic congestion in the town.
