An investment of $1,125,231 was announced, with profit from Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean's active transportation infrastructure. I support the introduction and improvement of the Green Route and also ride with cyclists in the region who are traveling there.

The global transshipment allows the improvement of the Véloroute des Bleuets in the MRC Domaine-du-Roy. The deputy of Jonquière, Yannick Gagnon, said very precisely that a tranche of 600,000 US dollars was invested in a part of the passable track of 1.2 km, created on the routes of Cégep de Jonquière, and which focuses on the Piste based in the Parc de la Rivière-aux-Sables. M. Gagnon was also a member of the community-requested project, but he had been involved in developing a partnership with the college faculty for years.

The work accompanying this major project ended this year as normal, citing the minister in charge of the region, Andrée Laforest.

It is worth mentioning that the Ministry of Transport and Mobility has volunteered to provide adapted programs. Global funding of $1.1 million was raised in twos, more than $550,000 compared to the MRC The region is also from Quebec.
