Mansfield City Council this week approved $500,000 in American Rescue Plan Act dollars that will connect 18 miles of the B&O Bike Trail to Trimble Road.
City Council President David Falquette said they had multiple people from the public speak in favor of the $1.7 million dollar plan. Funding for the project will be coming from many different areas, including $600,000 from the Regional Planning Commission, according to Mansfield Engineer Bob Bianchi. Design work will start in September and take two years to complete, which will see construction start in January of 2025 and finish in August of that year.
