$1,194,000
Project Schedule:
Design Start Date October 2009

This segment of The Portage to be constructed will begin at a trailhead on
the east side of Middlebury Road. The trail will continue east to an existing
aggregate trail within Fred Fuller Park.
The project includes the construction of a multi-use trail facility
consisting of a 10’ wide asphalt trail on grade, a 176’ bridge crossing the
Cuyahoga River and 750’ of boardwalk.
The Tannery Segment will
provide local access, along the Cuyahoga River, between Fred Fuller and Tannery
Parks. Possible construction of a boardwalk, bridge and/or retaining wall
exists.
Multiple alternates are being explored to determine the best alignment. Factors
that are being considered as part of the alternate alignment study include;
environmental impact, historical impact, construction and maintenance cost,
trail experience, utility involvement and impact to adjoining property.
Project Status:
- Preliminary design stage
- Alternates are being evaluated
- Public meeting to be held in May 2010
