A popular park in Windsor has been made more open due to a feature unveiled on Friday.
A new accessible pathway has been opened at Alexander Park, one of a series of parks that line Windsor's riverfront. The $30,000 project included excavation, the addition of a stone base, and a 1.5-metre-wide by 33-metre-long concrete pathway.
The pathway was opened by Ward 5 Councillor Ed Sleiman and Mayor Drew Dilkens.
"Ward 5’s Alexander Park is a very special place in our community," said Sleiman. "Last year, we unveiled the Lebanese Community Monument, celebrating heritage, culture, and community spirit in this beautiful waterfront park. Today, we celebrated another meaningful investment that improves this park for everyone. This new accessible pathway is about inclusion and ensuring that all residents and visitors can enjoy the space."
The opening of the pathway coincided with the start of National AccessAbility Week, which promotes barrier-free inclusion.
