TCT’s Capital Improvement Plan is open for submissions!

As part of our newsletter series to Trail groups and volunteers, we're pleased to announce the launch of TCT's The Great Trail Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for 2020-2021.

With such a long and vast Trail, we know there will always be opportunities for continued improvement and enhancements. That's where our CIP comes in! The CIP is run by Trans Canada Trail (TCT) and provides financial contributions to projects on The Great Trail of Canada

You can submit your project HERE. When viewing for the first time, this form may take a few minutes to load. Project proposals will be accepted between August 7 and October 7, 2019. We invite you to consult CIP guidelines to validate the eligibility of your project..

See below for successful Trail projects that TCT has supported. For any information or questions, do not hesitate to contact your TCT representative, listed on the final page of the CIP guidelines.

Manitoba: A safe crossing at Hanson’s Creek
