Southport, which is located a few kilometers south of Portage la Prairie has introduced walking paths throughout the site grounds. The new walking paths were designed to make the site more pedestrian friendly. In total, the paths make up 12 kilometers of trails. Paths range from one to three kilometers each, and along each route, decals were placed to marked every 200 meters to helps those using the paths count their distances.

Bryce Taylor's the Manager of Facilities and explains they installed limestone walking paths last year, but crews will be coming to finish paving the paths as early as next week, and light posts will be going up too. Taylor notes the paths are a great addition for visitors of Southport as well as the residential and commercial tenants at Southport.
