A new Pride crosswalk has been unveiled outside the Niagara Region Headquarters.

The crosswalk is located at the intersection of Sir Isaac Brock Way and Schmon Parkway in Thorold.

The design was developed by the Brock University Human Rights and Equity office, and was chosen following input from local 2SLGBTQQIA+ communities.

The Niagara Region says the crosswalk is a way of celebrating, supporting and creating awareness of the 2SLGBTQQIA+ community in Niagara and beyond.
