Trail Getting Accessibility Upgrades

Bluewater Trails and the Sarnia Accessibility Advisory Committee are collaborating to promote the use of mobility devices on the Howard Watson Nature Trail.

Construction of the $220,000 project will widen, level and resurface the trail system. Bluewater Trails Chair Jared Fedora says they've received $110,000 of federal money to help fund the project.
