Funding unveiled for bicycle trail improvements on Vancouver Island

Local residents and visitors will have better options for biking around Vancouver Island with the rollout of nine cost-sharing cycling infrastructure projects through the BikeBC program.

The Town of Qualicum Beach was approved to receive just over half a million dollars for safety improvements on the town’s east-west multi-use path that is largely used by children as a route to and from school.

As part of CleanBC, the Province’s plan to set B.C. on a path to a stronger, more sustainable future, a new strategy is being developed that builds on BikeBC.

The new strategy, to be unveiled in the coming weeks, will focus on making walking, cycling, scootering, skateboarding and other modes of active transportation convenient for people of all ages and abilities.
