Trail construction will start in the coming months at Waverly Heights Municipal Park, at 1189 Scollard Drive, along the Trent-Severn Waterway.

An accessible multi-use pathway will be constructed through this park to connect pedestrians and cyclists with the existing Thompson’s Bay Dam Trail.  This pathway will also serve as an inspection and maintenance access route for the dam.

Construction will involve shallow excavation and grading, supply and placement of base granulars and surface stone dust treatment. Turf restoration will follow the path construction.

The project will begin with archaeological investigations in the park this summer prior to construction which is being targeted for the fall.

Access to most areas of the park including the playground equipment and basketball court are expected to remain open during construction. No impacts to roadway traffic or navigation on the canal are anticipated. Further updates will be provided closer to construction.
