We regret to say that the trail between Fraser Rd. and Silver Birch Drive will be closed until at least Tuesday morning (September 17). We regret the inconvenience.

We're hoping to open up the closed section of trail later this afternoon (September 17) - we require an inspection by Department of Lands and Forestry. We will post as soon as it is reopened.

Short trail closure to notify you about: we are having a leaning tree taken down between Brentwood Ave. and Maplewood Dr. this morning. Barricades will be up informing users of the closure. It will be reopened by this afternoon. hfxgov

The trail is back open between Brentwood Ave and Maplewood Dr. hfxgov

One more trail closure to notify you about - hopefully the last one in a while! The trail will once again be closed between Fraser Rd./Forestglen Dr. and Silver Birch Dr. This should begin around noon and only last for the afternoon. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Update: the trail is back open between Silver Birch Dr. and Fraser Rd./Forestglen Dr.

We received a message today from the city that although there will be work happening around Forestglen in terms of pouring curbs, access to the trail will be maintained.

Trail work near Hubley was completed today! The barriers should come down tomorrow morning, and the trail will be reopened for the weekend. There will be a bit of softness in the sections that were done until it dries up, so please take care.

Please note that paving is taking place today between James St. to Richard. There will be truck traffic around the trail but no closures - however, please use caution.

There might be delays on the trail today due to the construction work around Forestglen Dr. and Richard St. in Timberlea.

Please note that a tree is down between James St. and Forestglen Dr. in the Timberlea area - use caution in that area. We'll get it cleaned up today.

Just for your information the Canadian Armed Forces Reserves will be doing a march with full gear including weapons (#withoutammunition) on the BLT Trail over the next two days. They will only be on the trail a short time and other users are still able to continue using the trails.

The BLT Trail entrance parking lot (on Lakeside Dr.) has been blocked off by @NSLandsForestry - please walk or bike to the trail rather than driving to help maintain social distances.
