NortherN Niagara Regional Trail Network
On February 26th, the Northern Niagara Regional Trail Network (NNRTN) signed a memorandum of understanding to work together to establish a trail system that will create a 35 mile long trail from Lewiston to Lockport along the Lake Ontario shoreline.
The network includes The Village and Town of Lewiston, the City and Town of Lockport, the Village and Town of Wilson, Youngstown, Porter, Newfane, Somerset and Barker. Under the MOU, these communities will share a vision to connect individual existing trails in each of the municipalities into significant multi-use trails which will create connections for the Ontario Shoreline Trail, Erie Canalway and connecting ultimately to the recently completed Empire State Trail.
