On February 9, 2019, WCPARC, HWPI, Huron Clinton Metroparks and the WCRC hosted a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of construction on a 1.2 mile segment of the B2B beginning at the Dexter-Huron Metropark, heading east to Zeeb Road. This trail segment will include two bridges spanning the Huron River, and is anticipated to open this fall. Thanks to everyone who came out to show their support. Together we will build the B2B!
Today is #BiketoSchoolDay! Did you know that the Border to Border Trail provides kids a safe pathway to walk and bike to schools in communities across Washtenaw County?
Children who attend Rawsonville Elementary School have access to a safer walk to school from their neighborhoods along Grove Road on this segment of the #B2BTrail in Ypsilanti. 🍎
Happy walking and rolling!
Whether on wheels or by foot, exploring the Border to Border Trail gives you what you need to stay healthy, active, connect to nature and find an outlet to take a break from the daily grind. We are going to #CelebrateTrails with a full MONTH of instagram takeovers to show some of the ways our trail community members enjoy the #B2BTrail. Join us this Sunday on Instagram @HWPathways to meet our first Take-Over Host. We can't wait! 🎉
🔀 Let's talk wayfinding on the #B2BTrail!
Washtenaw County Parks & Recreation Commission is interested in where and how you access and navigate the B2B so they can determine wayfinding sign placement. See the full post below for details on this new survey!
📍 Survey Link: tinyurl.com/ympwewakNEW! Take our Border-to-Border (B2B) Trail Wayfinding Survey! WCPARC is redesigning and expanding its B2B Trail navigational wayfinding system. We want to know where and how you access the B2B and where you find it confusing so we can place the right signs in the right places.
The survey begins with a brief introduction to the new wayfinding system and then proceeds to two map-based questions, one multiple-choice, and a comments box. Please review the instructions before interacting with the maps. We recommend taking this survey on a computer but if you are on a mobile phone, some features will open in a new tab.
