Rolston Trail User Survey
 

1. Give us your thoughts about the Rolston Trail

 
The Rolston Trail is a trail through the Broadmead neighbourhood from its westerly trail head at the end of Dalewood Lane, it proceeds through Rithet’s Bog and Shadywood Park to Shadywood Drive. (The latter section has always been pedestrian only.) The trail continues from Shadywood Place through Emily Carr Park where it turns north to Emily Carr Drive. The route then uses a short section of the sidewalk on Emily Carr Drive to Pondwood Park where the trail continues through the park to Pondwood Lane. The trail remains in Pondwood Park until it reaches its northern trail head at Royal Oak Drive.

Only one survey per household can be filled out. Please ensure that the person who uses the trail most takes part in the survey.
