Rail trail lobby forms as state grants second phase
A federal grant of 800000 dollars backs the second phase of a Kansas rail trail project, aiming to raise over 200000 more locally. The effort, led by a friends group, seeks funds and support while addressing safety concerns about increases in crime with more foot and wheelchair traffic. KDWP notes crime remains low in state parks and crossings will use squeeze gates to block motorized access. The trail will span eight cities and link Ottawa to Richmond, with phased construction planned from 1996 onward.
