Whether it’s for commuting or for pleasure, the Lochside Regional Trail is a well-used corridor for cyclists and pedestrians alike, so the Capital Regional District (CRD) is giving users advanced notice about an upcoming trail closure near Swan Lake for repaving work.
From March 22 to 25, the Lochside Regional Trail will be closed between Saanich Road and Swan Street for asphalt repairs. The temporary closure will last from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day to allow crews to undertake the routine maintenance work.
