Soon we will all ride to Manor
Wednesday, September 27, 2023 by Elizabeth Pagano
The city offered a tiny update to the big Austin to Manor Trail project this week. Crews have finished clearing and rough grading on the trail corridor and are “nearing completion of the subgrade work,” according to a release from the city. That subgrade work will form the foundation for the 2.9-mile concrete trail extension that will ultimately connect Manor’s Ben E. Fisher Park to Lindell Lane. Over the next few weeks, work will continue on low water crossings. The trail is expected to be complete by next summer.
