The AVOC's construction of two bridges along the Inlet Trail took 245 volunteer hours to complete.

The AVOC’s construction of two bridges along the Inlet Trail took 245 volunteer hours to complete.

The parameters of the project were changed somewhat when the Alberni Clayoquot Regional District realized it had enough money left over from its two bridge project to build the additional 30 foot bridge.  This left the AVOC with a 20 foot and a 10 foot bridge to acquire and install, and the upgrading of the trail and some construction of new sections of trail.

This work was completed to the satisfaction of the ACRD and Island Timberlands (the landowner).  In January of this year these two parties signed a non-exclusive license which formalized the recognition of Stage 1 and Stage 2 of the Inlet Trail, now reaching from Port Alberni to Franklin River.
