Martin Goodman Trail

Publication:21 August 2025

(From Waterfront Toronto) In 2009, Waterfront Toronto opened a newly created stretch of the Martin Goodman Trail at Ontario Place. This critical link in the 56 kilometre Martin Goodman Trail now provides opportunities for alternative modes of travel across the waterfront in a safe and attractive environment. Designed by leading landscape architects Janet Rosenberg and Associates, the new 1.3 kilometre tree-lined stretch of the Martin Goodman Trail runs parallel to Lake Shore Boulevard through Ontario Place from Marilyn Bell Park to Coronation Park at Strachan Avenue. The attractive and functional trail is barrier-free and accommodates a wide range of recreational activities. The project created a new “front door” to Ontario Place and enhanced the everyday function of the major destination by providing a safe and direct route through the park for cyclists and other recreational users that is separated from car traffic. Safety for trail users was also improved by visually separating pedestrian crossings from designated bike crossings using state-of-the-art bicycle signals.
