The City of Peterborough has installed a new beach access mat at Beavermead Beach in Peterborough.
The mat provides a walkway across the sand, allowing easier access to the water at Little Lake for everyone but especially people who use wheelchairs and other mobility aids, as well as parents with strollers.
The beach, located at Beavermead Park (2011 Ashburnham Dr., Peterborough), is one of Peterborough’s two most popular beaches (the other being Rogers Cove).
A public ribbon cutting will take place on Friday, August 25th at 3 p.m. at Beavermead Beach.
