Lake Milo Active Transportation Route

About the Project

A walking and cycling route along Lake Milo was first proposed more than 20 years ago, and again in 2010, as part of the Yarmouth Active Transportation Plan. Over the years the Lake Milo route has remained a community aspiration. Interest in active transportation (AT) continues to grow, funding opportunities have improved, and new practices in transportation planning have emerged. The time has come for an inspiring vision and a clear path forward. 

The goal of this project is to identify a functional design for development of an AT route along Lake Milo. It will include a phased plan for implementation over the next 10 years. The project will also explore options for roadway crossings and connection with existing and future AT routes, including the Yarmouth District Rail Trail.

The future Lake Milo route must reflect the values of an active community, and take the needs of local landowners into consideration.
