Rotary Trail Phase Four

The Rotary Trail Expands!

The Rotary Trail is a hard-surface gravel “rail with trail” along the E & N rail corridor in Courtenay. The first four phases are complete, connecting 5th to 26th Street - a distance of over one kilometre. A fifth phase connecting 26th to 29th Street is under construction. The expected completion is October 2015. The City of Courtenay is working on the trail in partnership with the Island Corridor Foundation and the Courtenay Rotary Club. Additional funding has come from TELUS and the Government of Canada through the Gas Tax Fund. The Island Corridor Foundation’s goal is to expand multi purpose use of the rail corridor, and they are actively working with other local governments bordering the corridor to develop similar projects. Their long-term goal is a trail along the length of the rail corridor, stretching 234 kilometres.
