My wife and I relocated to Halifax two years ago and purchased a condo unit on Springvale Avenue. The condo has a number of owners who use the adjacent Chain Lake Trail on a daily basis to exercise and walk their dogs. It was quickly apparent to me that access to the trail particularly during the winter months was dangerous to these owners due to the heavy traffic on Springvale.
I contacted Linda Mosher, our Councillor for district 9 to explore any remedies that might exist. Councillor Mosher took the time to visit the site in order to understand the problem. After agreeing the problem needed to be addressed, Linda commissioned the City’s engineering department to develop a solution. In a few short weeks we had an aesthetically pleasing solution that greatly enhanced our safety. Kudos to Councillor Mosher for listening and taking action.
