The forwarded message below is from Brad Bates, Capital City Trail manager.
Bonnie Gruber DNR Bureau of Parks & Recreation (608)267-7459 Sorry, I have no maps at this time. There are survey stakes in the ground that mark out the path if you are interested. The County has really taken the lead about dealing with this issue. We (Dane County Parks staff and Dana and I are currently sitting back to see what surfaces from our initial action.

Subject: Re: FW: [Bikies] [Fwd: Road across Cap City Bike Trail] Where is this proposed road exactly? West of Fish Hatch, through that forest. East of Fish Hatch the bike path is on a road, right? So, where is this? Why would they want a road through the forest when they can go on Fish Hatchery? It's only a couple of hundred feet, isn't it? Maybe a map would help.

We have discussed options such as a bike path bridge or culvert that would provide an interrupted travel for the trail users. Some "Higher Officials" within the County have stepped in to help and we are waiting to hear what the alternative plans are from Fitchburg. I would imagine that any type of support from the community would be beneficial in providing a safe layout for the proposed road and the existing Capital City State Trail.
