Description
Recreation corridors are an important component of an overall strategy to increase physical activity and improve the health and wellness of Albertans. Recreation corridors also provide opportunities for economic development, rural diversification, tourism promotion, and economic retention. The Alberta Recreation Corridors Legislative Review Committee was established to provide advice regarding the review of existing legislation related to recreation corridors in Alberta, to address the needs, issues and concerns related to existing trails and future recreation corridors, and to consider, if appropriate, what new legislation would be necessary to support planning, design, construction and operation of recreation corridors in the province. This report provides the Committee's recommendations to the Minister of Community Development.
