“This is amazing. It’s beautiful. It’s the first of its kind on P.E.I. So, we’re super, super proud of the Evangeline ATV club,” said Kelly Dowling, spokesperson for the P.E.I. ATV Federation.
Teresa Twijnstra, a board member of the Evangeline ATV Club, helped bring the idea of adding a covered bridge to one of the local off-road trails to life. The structure was recently installed off Taddy Road and will serve as an attraction and landmark for anyone travelling through the area’s growing network of ATV trails. - Colin MacLean/SaltWire Network
It’s the brainchild of Teresa Twijnstra, a board member of the club, and was brought to life by the support of local sponsors and the hard work of volunteers.Twijnstra is an avid ATV rider and a strong believer in growing the hobby’s tourism potential on the Island. She got the idea for the bridge after seeing many of the structures during her own riding excursions to New Brunswick.She brought the idea to her board about a year ago and found support.
The structure is comprised of a metal sea can , to which windows, solar-powered lighting and a peaked roof have been added. The exterior has been covered in juniper and designed to look like a traditional covered bridge. Kelly Dowling, a spokesperson for the federation, said structures like the Evangeline club’s bridge are not only a landmark, but they also add character to the growing network of ATV trails in P.E.I. and could help bring in new tourism opportunities for the Island’s economy.
