actionjack Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Am I reading correctly that the politiicians that have promised reopening of Parc Tremblant trails have been elected? Does that mean this trail (or trails) will be open this season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cnc Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 I believe all parties were asked what their stance would be on off road trails, development etc etc. I can’t really remember the details only that their responses were similar pre election promises. Maybe some one has more detail. What I do know is under the liberal party, the bypass connecting Tremblant to St Faustin was almost complete, government funding, minister of transport approval all secure. The only thing the club was waiting for to start work was a certificate of approval from the environment minister. Now we have the CAQ and of course there will be all new people filling these positions and that project could just stall in a sea of new bureaucratic red tape.

Seriously though I hope I am wrong. I am not a betting man and don’t hold your breath waiting to ride that again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actionjack Posted October 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Actually the CAQ promised, if elected to reopen parts of the trails through Parc Tremblant in response to Saint-Donat complaining of the trail closures hurting their economy by isolating the region. In response, CAQ opponents, Parti Quebecois, Solidaire, and Liberal all stated the matter was settled in 2013 when the trails were closed. In supporting their positions of keeping the park closed they touted the reconnection of St Faustin and Tremblant but of course that hasn't happened in reality yet. Guess its too early, but I was looking for more on the ground info on a potential positive development for the sport. PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell I guess as well as if the Tremblant/ St Faustin by-pass final approval gets pushed along or ends up gathering dust for another season.

Signfan Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Isn't it a national park? Is this an area the provincial gov't has jurisdiction over? It would be awesome to see those trails open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
