EDMONTON, AB – The government is putting taxpayer dollars towards the enhancement, repair and protection of Alberta’s provincial park.
The province said $43 million will go towards this initiative, which will see the improvement of trails and pathways, as well as upgrades to day-use areas and campgrounds.
The government stated that this work will help create more than 290 jobs and is part of Alberta’s Recovery Plan from the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Alberta is blessed with some of the most beautiful natural landscapes in our country. That’s why we are committed to making sure our parks remain accessible and beautiful for years to come with upgrades to the paths and facilities visitors rely on,” said Premier Jason Kenney in a release.
