Active Transportation Along the Southwest Transitway

Active transportation is a better choice than ever before for football fans heading to Princess Auto Stadium, with an active transportation path (opened in 2020) that runs the entire length of the Southwest Transitway and into the University of Manitoba campus. Wayfinding signage along the trail directs people to the campus.
