New improvements to the Lighthouse Country Regional Trail (LCRT) will now connect two parks near Qualicum Beach.
The Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) celebrated the completion of a new bridge with a ribbon cutting ceremony Sunday, May 25, connecting Lions Community Park at Lioness Boulevard to Wildwood Community Park at McColl Road.
The improvements provide trail users with a four kilometres connection between the two parks with new accessibility improvements.
The LCRT separates into a north section neighbouring Wildwood Community Park making up two kilometres of footpath, while the south section offers around 2.5 kilometres with a wheelchair-accessible trail.
