Little Miami (Ohio to Erie) Trail news
Extension of Little Miami Scenic Trail
The Hamilton County Park District and several partnering agencies have initiated projects that are underway or in various stages of planning and design to extend the Little Miami Scenic Trail from Milford to Clear Creek Park. There are also several related projects that are happening along the Little Miami Scenic River. The Little Miami Golf Center will receive major improvements during the period 2004 through 2007. The entry road will be relocated to align with Valley Ave, the parking lot will be expanded, the par 3 golf course will be relocated, and the driving range will be expanded and improved. Before the trail construction can begin the Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) must complete construction of the Wooster Pike Sanitary Sewer. It will run from Route 32, through the Little Miami Golf Center, across the Little Miami River and run west and east of Newtown Road. Trail related work that is currently underway is the trail bridge construction parallel to the Newtown Road Bridge. There will be two bridges, one across the Little Miami River, and one across Dry Run Creek. The bridges are scheduled to be complete by November 2004. This project is being managed by the Ohio Department of Transportation. This project also includes a portion of the MSD sewer line and a portion of a water line being constructed for Greater Cincinnati Water Works. The Park District will begin construction of a trail segment from Avoca to Little Miami Golf Center following completion of the MSD sewer, currently scheduled for mid summer 2004. This trail segment is scheduled to be complete by in 2005. The next trail segment that will be constructed will be from Little Miami Golf Center to Clear Creek Park in Anderson Township. Another trail segment scheduled for construction will be the portion from Milford to Avoca, where the Park District will provide a trailhead. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources is responsible for the construction of this trail segment and is scheduled to start construction no sooner than fall 2005. The schedule for the trail segment from Clear Creek to Lunken Field is unknown. The public agencies involved have not secured all the necessary right of way. The schedule of all the projects is subject to change. Project information will be updated periodically when there is significant new information. For more information call Ross Hamre, Park District Planning Director at (513) 728-3551. Information prepared by Hamilton County Park District on 5-13-04. |
