Upgrades to the Millennium Trail through the Slab Creek and Hubbs Creek provincially significant wetlands will start on Tuesday, November 12. This phase of upgrades will occur where the trail crosses Station Road in Hillier and continue east to Danforth Road.

• The elevation of the trail will be raised with gravel through the Slabb Creek and Hubb’s Creek wetland areas in order to prevent seasonal flooding of the trail.
• To improve the surface of the trail for the benefit of all users, construction crews will also be grading, applying 6” of limestone screenings, and rolling the surface of the trail.
• The work to upgrade the 4.5 km stretch of trail is expected to continue for approximately two weeks.

This section of the trail will be closed during the upgrade work and will be marked appropriately.

Via OPP Detachment Commander John Hatch provided a news release on Trail Safety. “DON’T CUT LIFE SHORT FOR THE SPORT,” SAY OPP AND OFATV.

With hunters and off-road enthusiasts taking advantage of the fall riding season, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is partnering with the Ontario Federation of ATV Clubs (OFATV) to remind all off-roaders to do their part to stay safe.
