Construction of the new accessible trail begins

The Town of Newmarket is proceeding with the construction of the new accessible trail from Clifford Perry Place to Art West Avenue to the existing Dave Kerwin Trail.

As you may have noticed, Phase 1 of the project, which focused on tree removal, is now complete. Phase 2 will focus on constructing the trail and associated retaining walls. Phase 2 is expected to begin as early as the week of August 21, 2023, with an anticipated completion by Fall 2024, subject to weather and site conditions. Restoration works may be completed in early 2025.

Construction will occur Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and occasionally on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The safety of all residents and workers is of the utmost importance. At the end of each day, the Contractor will leave the site safe and secure. Please do not enter the construction area and keep a safe distance away from all construction operations. We understand that children may be curious about the construction activities, however, we request parents make every effort to keep children a safe distance away from the construction site.

We apologize for any inconvenience the construction may cause and thank you for your patience while we complete this exciting trail project that will provide a safe and more direct route to the Environmental Park for residents living on or near Clifford Perry Place and Art West Avenue.
