What is This Project?
This project is made possible through a cost share with a developer that will construct an extension of Sang Ave. from Halsell Rd. to Markham Rd. A 10-foot-wide shared use paved trail will be constructed along the west side of the new Sang Ave using trail bond funding for the cost of the trail.
Why is it Important?
This is part of a larger trail connection that will be developing in the upcoming years from Persimmon Road at I-49 east to Sang Ave and over to Markham Rd. to connect to the University of Arkansas at Razorback Road. A phase of this trail has been constructed along the south side of Markham Rd. and this phase will extend this trail north to Halsell Rd.
