The Nova Scotia Blue Route, a province-wide project to create a continuous network of cycling routes, has been expanded and upgraded in three sections after a combined investment of more than $5.8 million from the federal and provincial governments.
The three sections of the Nova Scotia Blue Route that have received upgrades and expansions include:
- Section 1: Trunk 1 from Windsor town line to Lighthouse Road - Approximately 7.4 kilometres of shoulder and surface improvements were made.
- Section 2: Ferry Road from Trunk 6 to 300 metres south of Gulf Shore Road (various sections) - Approximately 6.9 kilometres of surface and road improvements were made.
- Section 3: Route 376 from Route 256 to Pictou Roundabout - Approximately 4.8 kilometres of shoulder and surface improvements were made.
This project has improved the cycling experience on three sections of the Blue Route and brought the entire project closer to completion, making it easier to navigate Nova Scotia by bicycle.
