Invitation Flyer

The Halifax Urban Greenway Association (HUGA) was formed to preserve the natural area along the CN Rail line in the Beaufort Avenue area of Southend Halifax. HUGA believes a multi-use trail is necessary to preserve some of the trees and natural area in this community. Where possible, a nature footpath will parallel the multi-use trail.

The first phase of the trail will be constructed along Beaufort Avenue sidewalk between South Street and Marlborough Woods.

Phase two will include Marlborough Woods to the Oaks, Saint Mary’s University, pedestrian bridge across railway cut, along sidewalk allowance south side of Francklyn Street to Point Pleasant Park, along south side Point Pleasant Drive to Port of Halifax entrance, also along north side Pine Hill Drive and Harbourview Drive to Young Avenue.

The final phase will extend the trailway along the east side of railway cut from South Street to Quinpool Road, under Quinpool and ending at Chebucto.
