Help Plan Centennial Greenway

From Maggie Edelmann at Trailnet:

The first phase of planning for Centennial Greenway, a system of parks and trails that will link Forest Park to Creve Coeur County Park to the Katy Trail, wrapped up in early April. This phase focused on analysis and inventory of the study area. Based on technical data, along with public input from five forums held in January and February of this year, the study team has identified several options for the greenway as well criteria to evaluate these options.

Attend one of the upcoming forums to review the options and to provide your input. The following forums are open houses so feel free to stop by anytime. The same information will be available at both forums, and there will also be a half hour presentation at each of the following:

* Tuesday, May 17, 5:30-7:30 p.m., presentation from 6:30 – 7:00, Craig Elementary School, 1492 Craig Road, 63146

* Wednesday, May 18, 5:30-7:30 p.m., presentation from 6:30 – 7:00, Center of Clayton, 50 Gay Avenue, 63105

For more information, call Great Rivers Greenway at (314) 436-7009 or visit www.greatrivers.info

While I am mostly an on-road cyclist I think the idea of connecting parts of the region through a linear park system is a good idea. This makes good use of existing rights-of-way, provides local parks and a legitimate means of getting from point A to point B through a park. Tax dollars at work doing good things.

– Steve
