CONNECT NAKUSP - Nakusp's Active Transportation Network Plan
After completing the NABS Active Transportation Plan project, the Village’s next step is to develop an active transportation network plan within the village. In mid-2024, the Village was successful with a grant application for an Active Transportation Network Planning grant. Other project funding comes from the Nakusp and Area Community Forest (NACFOR) Legacy Fund, Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) Area K funding, and in-kind efforts of suppliers, contractors and volunteers.
The Village has contracted True North Forestry Consulting to prepare the Network Plan. The project's endpoint is to create an overall network plan made up of logical interconnecting routes linking destinations in and around the Village. The accompanying drawings will be used to implement grant funding applications and guide construction.
