Martin Goodman Trail construction

If you're a winter runner or a cyclist, then you've been happy about the progress being made on the city sending out snow ploughs to clear the areas from Bathurst all the way to Humber Bridge, which makes for 6.5 kilometres of cleared trail.

So if you've been on that trail, you may have noticed some construction happening in the area from Marilyn Bell Park to Coronation Park.

Construction starts in March. Here's more info from Vaughan's January newsletter,

Reconstruction of the Martin Goodman Trail at Ontario Place has wrapped up for the season, and will start again in March weather permitting. Trail reconstruction began in October 2008, proceeded on schedule and is half completed. The reconstruction of the Martin Goodman Trail will provide a continuous connection from Marilyn Bell Park in the east, to Coronation Park in the west. The newly configured trail will provide a more direct and user-friendly bike route, by redirecting traffic through a singular entrance to Ontario Place. The reconstructed trail is anticipated to be complete summer 2009.
