🚧 BIKE TRAIL CLOSURE NOTICE 🚧

Please be aware that a section of the bike trail between W. Wheeling St. and Hocking St. will be temporarily closed for repaving beginning this week.

The contractor will be fitting this project into their schedule, so an exact start date is not yet available. Once work begins, the project is expected to take approximately two days to complete.

Please plan accordingly and watch for updates regarding the closure.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to improve our bike trail!
