📣 Exciting progress continues on the Border-to-Border Trail at Dehli Metropark! This trail segment is the first of a two-part project that will extend the #B2BTrail an additional 1.8 miles. When the project is finished, it will complete 4 miles of continuous trail from Dexter to Ann Arbor!
Construction on this first section of the B2B started in mid September with its completion anticipated in early November. This project not only includes paving the new pathway, but also moving Skip's Huron River Canoe Livery to a new location in the Metropark to accommodate the extension of the trail.
The second section of this project will add just under a mile of trail going from Zeeb Road to East Delhi Road. Construction will begin with tree work to be done this winter. We hope to celebrate the official opening of this trail segment with partners, Huron-Clinton Metroparks and Washtenaw County Parks & Recreation Commission in the summer of 2021.
🍂 We are so excited about this trail progress that brings us closer to connecting Dexter to the City of Ann Arbor!Looks like you are making great progress!
Drove by this morning and saw the concrete apron on either side of E Delhi, I assume paving will follow shortly. Will the next bridge from W Delhi Metropark cross just West of Boyden Creek?
Awesome. What is the best guess for how long it will be until we have a complete trail from AA to Dexter? I've *really* appreciated what we have so far and look forward to it all getting connected!
