Thunder Bay is looking to beautify some of the city's main corridors. 

Adding more trees, improving bus shelters and widening sidewalks are some of the ideas in place to improve the city's image.

The image route recommendations will come to council Monday evening with four main areas identified. The first priority in the plan is Algoma Street, which is described as an area in transition. 

That district has been increasing in popularity as a destination for living, shopping and eating. 

Another priority in the plan is Arthur Street, where a major tree planting campaign is recommended as well as St. Patrick Square and Waverly Park. 

The report recommends Council setting aside 300-thousand dollars a year for the beautification.
