Construction Halt May Delay Opening Date of Fundy Trail Parkway

There’s concern a work stopage on the Fundy Trail Parkway may delay it’s expected opening in 2018. It’s hoped the parkway, connecting Moncton to St.Stephen, will become a provincial attraction – with waterfalls, coastline vistas, beaches and wildlife. The route is essentially finished but work has halted over a provincial connector road that would connect the parkway to route 114 near the Fundy National Park. Their’s speculation that a new environmental assessment will have to be conducted on the connector road – which would take two years and delay the opening of the parkway until 2020.
