On Feb. 17, construction crews installed security fencing and officially closed the western portion of the Southside Trail.
This 0.75-mile segment, called Southside Trail-West, will remain closed while Astra Group builds out the multi-use trail. Work will include a 14-foot-wide concrete trail; gravel path at Allene Avenue; a new pedestrian bridge, an ADA-accessible ramp, and pedestrian signal and crosswalk at Metropolitan Parkway; lights and security cameras; utility relocations, environmental remediation of the corridor; stormwater infrastructure; granite retaining walls; and full landscaping.
A groundbreaking celebration was held on Jan. 22,, and the project is expected to last a year. These periodic meetings are structured to keep the public informed about the progress and to give updates about any changes.
