The Clock Tower Trail

Councillor Moise is proud to announce that the Green Loop which is the pedestrian walk in the Bay Cloverhill, Church Wellesley and McGill Granby Village neighbourhoods has been renamed to "The Clock Tower Trail".

The Bay Cloverhill Community Association and the Councillor had a vision that includes a downtown inner green loop walking promenade connecting neighbourhoods, green spaces and parks, beginning in the northeast at Charles Street East.

The loop passes through the three linear parks to the south. Crossing Wellesley Street, the walk continues south crossing Carlton Street and onto Granby Street and McGill Parkette where a pedestrian signalized traffic light would allow crossing Yonge Street before moving north through College Park to Grenville Street.

The path would traverse the 2G Grenville-Grosvenor development and move north along Opera Place Park and the Leaf Garden through the new Dr. Lillian McGregor Park and up Bay Street to the Learning Lane. The walk passes through Clover Hill Park and along St. Mary Street before returning along Charles Street to the start. Suitable lighting, signage, trail markers, and some tabled crosswalks would be required to make navigation safe and easy.

This green pathway would encourage residents to be physically active and engage with their fellow residents in the neighbourhood.
