Cardinal Greenway project lands more state dollars - [Palladium-Item News]

The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has awarded more than $20 million in Transportation Enhancement (TE) funds statewide for projects such as multi-use trails, streetscape improvements and historic bridge rehabilitations. That figure includes project money for a portion of the Cardinal Greenway in Wayne County.

The project also includes signage, a trailhead and bicycle racks. The new portion of the trail will connect to the rest of the 70-mile Cardinal Greenway Trail that stretches through five Indiana counties.

Multi-use trails are gaining popularity in many Indiana communities, and the state’s 10-year goal is to have a trail within 15 minutes of every Hoosier.
