The Nova Scotia government is committing $100,000 for upgrades to Thomas Raddall Provincial Park in Port Joli.

The money will help improve the park’s entrance building and water system, according to a news release from the governing Progressive Conservatives.

“We’re making smart upgrades that protect these beautiful spaces and make them easier and more enjoyable to access,” Queens MLA Kim Masland said in the release.

The work at Thomas Raddall is part of the province’s $13.8-million capital plan to improve infrastructure at 16 provincial parks, including water and sewer system upgrades at camping parks, washroom improvements, trail enhancements and parking lot redevelopments, according to the release.

More than 1 million people visited provincial parks in 2024.
