The Terwillegar Park Trail Options - West End Trails Project was agenda item 6.1 at today's City of Edmonton Executive Meeting.
ENC members Patsy Cotterill and Shirley Coulson spoke in favor of option 5 for the alignment of the trail connecting the existing Ft. Edmonton  and the Terwilligar (under construction) footbridges.
 
Committee voted unanimously to approve the West End Trail Project
and, in particular, adoption of option 5, the "Meadow Trail", without discussion.
The Mayor thanked the ENC members for their interest in protecting Edmonton's biodiversity.
