The northern reach of the Connect Trail is quickly taking shape. With the placement of close to a half mile of concrete trail between North 9th Street and the northern trailhead at Tributary Street it is easy to feel the comfort afforded and the usability of the trail once complete. Construction on this reach continues as the contractor works to complete the soft surface trail shoulders, install benches, trash cans, and pedestrian railing along retaining walls. Additionally, the trail corridor has been cleared and roughed in from the West Main bridge to North 9th Street.
