Why not enjoy Canada Day and some active transportation while you are at it?
In an effort to promote active transportation the City is supporting a request from nuSarnia Foundation to provide enhanced infrastructure for cyclists on Canada Day. Specifically, we are installing temporary bi-directional bike lanes in two locations, expanding our existing networks of bike lanes.
With the Bluewater Trails Committee operating a bike coral at Canatara Park, it’s never been easier to cycle your way into Canada Day. Don’t forget to decorate your bike!
Consult the map below for temporary and permanent bike lane locations, in addition to the corral at Canatara Park. You can also learn more about designated routes below.
Designated routes
You can use the full cycling network to make your way to and from Canada Day. Special red and white signage will be set up along two designated routes, marking the best path to Canatara Park from the Howard Watson Nature Trail and downtown.
