A permanent Off-Road Vehicle By-Law is now on the books, and it’s not much different from the previous one.
ORVs will be allowed in all urban centres in Chatham-Kent, except for Chatham proper, along with Murray St, McNaughton Ave, and Dufferin Ave in Wallaceburg.
President of the Chatham-Kent ATV Club, Vince Masse, says all the riders are pleased.
“We proved ourselves to council and it’s a good feeling that we’re moving forward with this,” Masse says. “We have our towns back to go into and ride in and do destination runs like we used to.”
Duart Road and Turin Line have been removed from the restricted list, and crossing routes through restricted roadways will be reviewed.
