Construction shuts down Cochran Mill Park

Monday was the last available time to hike the trails of Cochran Mill Park, until possibly December. The park will be closed for two weeks to complete construction on the parking lot, weather permitting.

The funds for the parking lot improvement came in part from collecting parking fees since May 2013. During construction all park trails and camping will be closed.
