Thunder Bay's New Traffic Garden Now Open
Visit West End Park beside Hammarskjold High School to see and experience Thunder Bay's first Traffic Garden, a dedicated space featuring a miniature street network with simplified traffic features, completely free of cars.
This innovative space provides children with a safe and engaging environment to learn the rules of the road through hands-on experience.
“Thunder Bay's first Traffic Garden supports EcoSuperior's Active Transportation programs by fostering a love of cycling from an early age,” explained EcoSuperior Co-Executive Director Ashley Priem.
“This garden will give children their own miniaturized world where they can develop lifelong skills in bike safety and the rules of the road, in a fun environment free from the dangers of motor vehicles.”

This project was made possible through a generous grant from the Hydro One Energizing Life Community Fund, with additional support from The City of Thunder Bay.
