Hanover director of Parks, Recreation and Culture Sherri Walden presented the report.
At the Dec. 13, 2018 meeting, council received a Trails Bridges 2 and 4 Direction report and approved the following motion that Structures 2 and 4 on the Community Trails System continue to be closed to all pedestrian and vehicular traffic; and that council consider the complete restoration of these structures in the 2019 capital budget.
In 2019, council approved $250,000 in the capital budget for trails system bridge work. At the July 15 meeting, council received a report noting that while repairing the bridges would open this section of the trail for use, it may not be the best long-term solution.

Plans are moving forward for the Ed Broadbent Waterfront Park.
Oshawa City Council voted unanimously to move the project forward at its April 26 meeting.
Regional Councillor Brian Nicholson says the overall concept is an extremely important addition to the city’s waterfront.
“It gives an obvious tribute to Ed Broadbent and his contributions to our city,” he says, adding the sooner the project can be fully completed the better it’ll be for the entire community.
