"Trail proposal may put Halifax on right track"
Halifax Chronicle-Herald, January 17, 2000, Page A1
Summary:
An HRM staff proposal,
part of the Halifax
Parklands Strategy, calls
for a pedestrian and
bicycle path parallel to
the railway tracks that run
around the peninsula and
end at the waterfront.
Planner Marcus Garnet
says HRM would acquire
much of the land lining
the tracks from CN Rail.
However, he says there is
no funding committed to
the project. Mayor
Fitzgerald and South End
Residents Association president
Hugh Pullen strongly
support the idea.
