MoBikeFed comment: This Community Trail is one outcome of the Healthy Nevada Project, sponsored by Cerner.

According Robert Johnson of PedNet, the designers of the trail, the complete $160,000 cost of building the trail was raised by local community members.

It goes to show how much communities across Missouri, from the largest to the smallest, want safe places to walk and bicycle in their communities. If Nevada--population 8100--can do it, so can *many* other communities across Missouri.
