About Us

Rainbow ROUTES Association is an incorporated, not-for-profit organization and registered charity.  The organization is dedicated to sustainable mobility through the development and promotion of active transportation routes in the City of Greater Sudbury and is the local representative for the Trans Canada Trail.

In recent years, the organization has undertaken the development of several important initiatives. In 2007, Rainbow ROUTES Association developed the “Learning through Trails” program which is an innovative program that integrates the Ontario Ministry of Education elementary curriculum with the physical activity of a trail walk. In 2010, the organization took the lead on the development of a Sustainable Mobility Plan for the City of Greater Sudbury which emphasizes the importance of walking and cycling for the purpose of personal transportation and not just for leisure.
