Blue Route (Nova Scotia)

The Blue Route is a cycling network under development in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. In 2017, the total length of the cycling network was 437 km.[2] When completed it will comprise approximately 3000 km of on- and off-road bicycle routes. The first 56 km section opened in 2015, linking Pictou to Bible Hill, and the whole network is expected to be completed by 2025.[3]

Wide shoulders and low traffic volumes on Trunk 4 outside Alma, make it a candidate to become part of Nova Scotia's Blue Route bicycling system.[1]
