If that’s been paved then that is a significant improvement already, but continuing along parallel to the tracks right up to the transit hub would be an even bigger improvement.
Yep, that's been paved. From the IHT to the tracks, and from the nearest pedestrian bridge to the tracks. The rail right of way itself however has not been paved, as scheduling with CN is apparently an absolutely massive pain. So the city paved up to it on either side, and making a real crossing is a to-do.
Now I’m more confused! I didn’t realize we were talking about a crossing of the track — I’m just talking about continuing parallel to the track. Maybe I should just get down there on my bicycle and see for myself. I’ve barely been anywhere in a year so it would be good to move around some more. Anyway, thanks for updating me on that trail.
