New Brunswick’s quad association has once again closed down trails for the province’s all-terrain vehicle users.
The closures are an effort to help curb the spread of COVID-19 in the province.
In a statement issued by QuadNB, President Roger Daigle said Friday’s decision to re-open provincial trails was due to a miscommunication with the provincial government.
“For the safety of our sport, our members, their families and the public, under the direction of the Government of NB, and in order to be in compliance with the Emergency Measures declaration, QuadNB is temporarily closing all managed quad trails in the province again until further notice,” Daigle wrote.
Daigle said the decision to reverse course and close the trails came after a phone call from Premier Blaine Higgs, asking for the closure until provincial health advisories are eased.
