The Municipality of Colchester and Villages of Bible Hill and Tatamagouche have partnered to create a comprehensive active transportation (AT) strategy intended to improve, optimize and prioritize AT options across the region. In March 2025, the Municipality of Colchester received Provincial Funding from the Connect2 Program to allow for the development of an updated Active Transportation Strategy and in August 2025, staff awarded the contract for the project to Urban Systems. The project will modernize the Municipality’s existing AT Strategy by developing a phased, inclusive, and evidence-based framework for future AT investments and is expected to finish by spring 2026.
