Phase 3 will take place over a three-year period, spanning the 2025–2027 construction seasons. The scope of work includes a 1.15 km extension of the main Tamarack Trail spine along Little Wabush Lake, a 200 m pathway connecting Gateway Labrador to the Town’s recreation area on Booth Avenue, and a 250 m bypass segment that will divert pedestrian traffic around a section of the White Wolf Snowmobile Club trail to allow for safe seasonal use.
