The trail will be a combination of at-grade paved surface, boardwalks and bridges that will span from the Capital City Trail at Lake Farm Road to McDaniel Park in the Village of McFarland. Provision of this trail is anticipated to reduce trespassing issues and improve safety on the Wisconsin and Southern Railroad Company active rail line that parallels portions of the proposed trail. Provisions for shore fishing near the railroad trestle on Lake Waubesa are also included in the trail plans. The trail will provide a major off road bicycle commuting link from southeastern Dane County to the downtown Madison area. A public information meeting to present the preferred alternative trail alignment, recommendations of the draft Environmental Report and project timeline will be held on Thursday, February 27th, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. at the Lussier Family Heritage Center, 3101 Lake Farm Road, Madison, WI 53711*.
