Abbotsford, British Columbia, November 19, 2025 — Communities across British Columbia will undertake active transportation improvement and planning projects after a federal investment of more than $6.3 million.

In Abbotsford, funding will support new multi-use pathways, sidewalks, a walking path, and a new active transportation bridge crossing at McLennan Creek. These projects were identified as priorities in Matsqui First Nation’s active transportation plan and will provide members with accessible, continuous, and safe active transportation infrastructure to connect with key destinations within their community.

In Duncan and North Cowichan, funding will support the construction of accessible sidewalks and a multi-use path as part of the Canada Avenue Active Transportation Corridor project. Increasing separation between active transportation users and motor vehicle traffic, designated crosswalks, and traffic calming measures will improve safety for users of the area’s emerging all ages and abilities network.

Funding will also go towards improving active transportation infrastructure for the We Wai Kai Nation and Snaw-Naw-As Nation and the completion of active transportation plans for the Skuppah Indian Band, Gingolx Village Government, Gitlaxt’aamiks Village Government, and Williams Lake First Nation.
