Golf Carts in Island Lake

Pilot Project (Golf Cart) Bylaw 05-2024

The Minister of Transportation and Economic Corridors signed a Ministerial Order on June 14, 2024, creating the Pilot Project (Golf Cart) Regulation under the Alberta Traffic Safety Act. As such, the Pilot Project (Golf Cart) Regulation authorizes participating municipalities, like the Summer Village of Island Lake, to pass bylaws that permit registered users to legally operate golf carts on designated public roads. 

The Summer Village Council and Administration has been working with Traffic Safety Services of Alberta Transportation and Economic Corridors to meet the approval requirements and, at the April 15, 2025 Council meeting, the Pilot Project (Golf Cart) Bylaw 05-2024, passed second and third readings and was brought into force. 

Highlights of the new Pilot Project (Golf Cart) Bylaw 05-2024:

• Operators must be a minimum of 14 years of age and must possess, at minimum, an Alberta Learners Driving Permit.
• All golf carts must be registered with the Summer Village of Island Lake. There will be a $50.00 annual registration fee. Once fees, proof of insurance and other registration requirements are met, you will be issued a ‘cart speci?c’ registration card that must be carried on the golf cart whenever it is being driven.
• Operators must carry and produce Municipal registration upon request of any Bylaw, Peace or Police Officer.
• Operators must immediately report to the Summer Village Administration, any collision resulting in injury, death or property damage of any amount or severity.
• Operation of golf carts is only permitted on roads identi?ed in Bylaw 05-2024.
• Towing of vehicles or other equipment is not allowed.
• The number of passengers is limited to the number of seats provided by the manufacturer.
• Golf carts may NOT be operated at night.
• Unless speci?ed in the regulation or Bylaw 05-2024, golf carts are subject to all other rules, terms and conditions as if they were a motor vehicle – and they must be operated as such.
