A connector trail seven years in the making that would connect Cliff Drive to Columbus Park is closer than ever to becoming a reality.
The bid award for the Cliff Drive Connector Trail was approved by the Board of Parks and Recreation Commissioners on Tuesday, September 13, and work is expected to begin sometime this fall. The new connector trail will essentially connect from Missouri Avenue and The Paseo all the way down to 3rd and Holmes in Columbus Park. Bids for the project were received on August 10, and Gunter Construction Company’s low bid of $718,723 was selected. The scope of work includes construction of a 10-foot wide concrete trail that would traverse through Kessler Park for 2,306 linear feet. Two alternate project items were also included in the presentation to the Parks Board: a shared bike lane that would continue through Columbus Park, and an eight-foot concrete trail that would connect the west gate of Cliff Drive to the new trailhead, and on to the intersection of The Paseo and Missouri Avenue.
