Belleville City Council will be asked to approve an application for federal funding as part of the North Riverfront Trail Extension project.
The report from the Director of Transportation & Operations Services, Joe Reid, outlines a plan to apply for $3,780,000 in funding from the Active Transportation Fund.
A recommendation also calls for pre-budget approval of the 2026 Capital Budget in the amount of $6,300,000 for the construction of the River Front Trail Extension.
$3,780,000 would be funded by the Active Transportation Fund and $2,520,000 would come from the city’s Asset Management Reserve Fund.
The proposed Riverfront Trail extension is from the Highway 401 crossing to the roundabout in Cannifton.
It would be situated along the west side of the river and pass under the 401 bridge, with permission from the Ministry of Transportation, and connect to Millennium Drive.
Council will discuss the recommendation at its meeting on Monday.
The meeting starts at 4 p.m.
