In the October council meeting, Huntsville Council approved a proposal from Town staff to enter into an agreement with a property owner on Highway 60 to use a portion of the property to establish a Town-maintained walkway for the upcoming winter. This walkway will connect Fairyview Drive with the pedestrian crossing at Highway 60 and Szawlowski Drive, keeping pedestrians safe and connected to the community during the winter months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThanks to the collaboration with a private property owner, we are happy to announce a Town-maintained walking path to help residents cross Highway 60 safely this winter,\u201d shares Mayor Nancy Alcock. \u201cHuntsville is an active community \u2013 and that doesn\u2019t stop once the snow flies. We are working to build on this initiative to increase resident\u2019s year-round connectivity in the community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Town staff are working to find a more permanent solution to connect the Town\u2019s active transportation routes from Fairyview Drive, across Highway 60, and to downtown Huntsville. These efforts are in response to community feedback requesting a review of pedestrian safety in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new walkway will divert pedestrian traffic away from the paved shoulders on Highway 60. Throughout the winter, these paved shoulders are used by the Ministry of Transportation Ontario for snow storage and are filled with snowbanks, making them unsafe for pedestrians use.<\/p>\n\n\n
