The Town of New Tecumseth Public Works department has completed work on the Trans Canada Trail between the 3rd Line and the 4th Line to improve safety for trail users.

That section of the trail was temporarily closed between Aug. 17 and Aug. 20 to allow crews to complete the work.

The project included removing hazardous trees, clearing brush and overgrown vegetation, and pruning trees along the trail.

It also included chipping branches and debris, and completing general trail maintenance to improve safety and usability.

The trails are maintained to reduce hazards and keep the trails safe for hikers and bikers along the route.

Users were notified in advance of the closure, with signs posted along the trail one week before the work began.
