Upgrades to the Ferguson Lake Trail boardwalk are now complete and it's open to the public.
The project began in February when the City of Prince George announced that the western portion of the trail would be closed for construction starting March 3.
Work was finished ahead of schedule and included the removal and replacement of old support posts and the boardwalk, improving the trail's safety, the city announced Wednesday, April 2.
Construction on access ramps to the boardwalk will begin in the coming weeks once the ice and snow have melted. In the meantime, users can access the boardwalk via existing ramps.
The city estimates the project will come in under the $276,000 budget, which includes a $220,000 grant from the Canada Community Building Fund. The remaining funds will come from the General Infrastructure Reinvestment Fund.
The Ferguson Lake Nature Reserve is owned by the Nature Trust of BC and managed by the City of Prince George.
