Expanding A Nature Trail

There is the possibility of the Bristol City Council looking again at expanding a nature trail to run from Rooster Front Park to the Bristol Motor Speedway.In 2019, Parks and Rec’ Director Terry Napier presented the project to the council. The presentation included drone footage of the project’s proposed route along Beaver Creek.The plan for the Beaver Creek greenway appears to be moving forward. The city will hold a town-hall meeting at the Slater Center this week to discuss the project.The project would involve purchasing right-of-way to construct a ten-foot wide paved path. The path would be designed to support both pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Additional costs would be required for needed signage and accessories, such as benches.
