From Sen. Joe Bolkom-
"Legislators from the Corridor (Iowa City, Coralville and Cedar Rapids) are meeting regularly for lunch to coordinate our bi-partisan legislative efforts in the Corridor....We also discussed the need for a recreational trail connecting Cedar Rapids and Iowa City/Coralville."
Thoughts?
It would be pretty cool to ride from I.C. to C.R. and then hook up with the Cedar Valley trail and cruise to Waterloo. Not a bad little ride there.

It would make for a nice trail, even if there is no reason to go to Cedar Rapids.
I would much rather see them focus on ensuring that every new road has a bike lane--trail or no, I'm still going to spend most of my time on the road.

I was entertaining the idea of commuting to my job on the south side of CR via the dirt/gravel shoulder on 965. I would like to see this shoulder paved or at least lime stoned. A dedicated trail would be great too... something that extends from North Liberty to CR. Is there anyone to write/email?

www.johnson-county.com has a trails plan under consideration. Hwy 965 will be under construction in the next two years. Hwy 965 is not a level one priority, but the board would like a seperate trail in addition to shoulders.

On 3-4-08 I emailed this to: sups@co.johnson.ia.us
Please put the $20 million dollar conservation funding issue on the November ballot. I would like the Cedar River trail to extend north to south through Johnson County.
Terrence Neuzil replied from: tneuzil@co.johnson.ia.us
I plan to allow the voters to make the decision in November. And I agree with you that a trail to Linn County would be great!

In my immediate future I need a bike trail from Ely to Wright Brothers Rd so I can commute safely to Yellowbook by bicycle.
