Introduction

The Friendship Trail was identified and recommended as a priority in the ‘Healing Vision’ Report by the Winds of Change Committee, a collaborative initiative of the Lil’wat Nation and Village of Pemberton. The recommendation establishes the need for a safe, non-motorized route between Pemberton and Mount Currie, in addition to the provision of shared recreational infrastructure. Once completed, the commuter trail will physically, socially and economically connect our communities. The completed Friendship Trail is part of the Sea to Sky Trail, a pedestrian/cycling trail that will run from West Vancouver to D’arcy, and will have a significant tourism draw.

The critical piece of the Friendship Trail is the multi-use bridge over the Lillooet River. The grant funding received for the bridge construction must address the following:
• Reduce Greenhouse Gases
• Provide a safe, non-motorized route between Pemberton & Mount Currie
• Encourage active transportation & promote physical activity

The scope of the project will consider location, length of the bridge, bridge structure, cost and the community’s desired structure (solely pedestrian use vs. equine friendly etc).
