That was never a trail according to the region who owns the land, they have tolerated the city pretending it is a trail for a long time.
And before the Region, CN presumably. I believe the paving bricks dated from an early ’90s renovation.
Do you know for sure the official status now? There is an official traffic sign at the east end forbidding motor vehicle traffic and advising bicycles/pedestrians to be careful because it is shared with trains.
Regional staff have claimed the official status, I have no personally pulled the land deeds lol, but I generally trust them.
And yes, the city also put up the sign. Frankly, it seems like one of these "stop asking questions lest we be forced to do something about it" situations.
That being said, I think it would be not too hard to fix, it would only take about 15 parking spaces in the parkade and some small renovations to redirect the path out through the parkade and avoid the entire alley...it should be trivial to work across the road from that point--its safer and less congested there anyway.
