The Elks’ contribution will provide signs and fencing for the location along with other items. “The county has actually contributed the gravel, and they’re working the parking area for us,” he included. He discussed the rain has actually held off construction and future weather will influence the timing of the conclusion of the trail. Messer said the bike trail would be used for mtb events for the various biking groups within the region. Messer previously told The Daily Independent the cycling group would also help maintain the tracks and arrange the races and events. He kept in mind from exactly what he has actually been informed, the trail will be the only one within 100 miles of the location. “It will snake its way through the park … it’s going to be a really very good brand-new mountain bike trail,” he stated. The bike trail belongs to the group’s general objective for Cannonsburg to be an official Kentucky Path Town.
