PEHRA is pleased to see the five new trail signs at trailheads in our parklands. The trail system was planned and initially developed by PEHRA, as the signs acknowledge. The previous signs were damaged in several storms, and PEHRA requested their replacement. We thank HRM Parks for working with us on the design of the new signs.
