A portion of a popular trail in Greater Victoria will close temporarily.
Starting Monday (Jan. 24), the Galloping Goose Regional Trail between the Watkiss Way and Burnside Road intersection and Talcott Road will close temporarily for improvements.
A detour route will be available along Watkiss Way during the temporary closure, according to the Town of View Royal.
The improvements are related to BC Transit’s new handyDART Centre in View Royal and include trail upgrades, new sidewalks, landscaping and stream restoration.
The Town of View Royal says the steep grade that exists along the closed section of the trail will be reduced and the alignment will be straightened.
No timeframe was given by the Town of View Royal or BC Transit for when the closed section of the trail would reopen.
