CertainTeed has collaborated with the Musquodoboit Valley Communities Association (MVCA) to develop a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an Active Transportation Path Design. This initiative seeks to get conceptual designs and planning constraints identified for a trail that would provide safe passage from the High School to the town center area in Middle Musquodoboit for residents and visitors to use instead of the shoulder of Route #224. MVCA is the project lead and CertainTeed will assist with funding support. Please reach out via this project website to request further information.

These activities include light trucks, a drill rig and field visits by staff to provide information for the permitting and detailed design of the project.
