Rocky View County signs MOU for Cochrane-Bragg Creek pathway link

The agreement sets the stage for future planning talks on a shared-use trail network spanning several communities west of Calgary.

Why it matters

A connected regional pathway could improve outdoor recreation access for residents across several communities west of Calgary.

Rocky View County has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Springbank Trail and Pathways Association, establishing a collaborative framework to explore a regional pathway connection between Cochrane and Bragg Creek.

The MOU does not commit either party to specific construction timelines or funding, but is intended to guide future cooperation on planning and development of the proposed trail corridor.

Officials say the partnership reflects growing interest in linking pathway networks across Rocky View County communities, though further details on route options, costs, and construction schedules have not yet been released.
