Construction started Monday on a $1.3-million project to add new bike lanes along Pope Road in Summerside. The bike lane construction on Pope Road will be done in two phases. Phase 1 will extend from Central Street to Greenwood Drive, and Phase 2 will continue from Greenwood Drive to South Drive. Once it’s finished, the 1.9-kilometer route will connect cyclists from South Drive all the way to Central Street.
The funding for the project is shared between the City of Summerside and the Province.
