Off-road vehicle enthusiasts can soon enjoy improved trails and recreation infrastructure in several communities throughout B.C.
This year, $400,000 from the Province’s Off-Road Vehicle Trail Fund will support 20 regional projects, such as building new trails, maintaining existing trails, or promoting safe and responsible use among riders.
“Outdoor recreation connects people to nature,” said Tamara Davidson, Minister of Environment and Parks.
“It’s all about staying active, building community and respecting our natural spaces. The ORV Trail Fund helps keep our trail networks safe and provides space for people to come together to enjoy the outdoors.”
The projects are mainly led by volunteer groups and organizations that contribute thousands of hours to maintain and improve trails throughout the province.
Now in its eighth year, the ORV Trail Fund is a user-funded program administered by Recreation Sites and Trails BC in partnership with the BC Power Sports Coalition.
Since its beginning in 2017, more than $2 million has supported 160 projects throughout the province, removing financial barriers for communities and volunteer groups.
