The Trails Master Plan is the culmination of years of hard work by District staff, community stakeholder groups and partnering agencies. It provides Council, staff, and the community of Squamish with a comprehensive strategy for the future of trails in Squamish and is a crucial step in the process of recognizing and growing this significant community amenity.

Key strategies in the plan include:

• providing a trail network that links neighbourhoods, parks, schools, commercial areas, and open spaces;
• establishing construction standards and signage guidelines; and
• developing a plan for implementation as funding and resources allow.

“Council is very pleased that this important document is now complete,” said Mayor Gardner. “In particular, we would like to commend the unprecedented level of collaboration and cooperation between the District, stakeholders and partnering agencies. This Master Plan establishes a community vision for the future of trails in Squamish and a strategy for achieving it.”
