Trail through Water Street property in Ypsilanti ready for citizen use

A temporary trail through the Water Street redevelopment property in Ypsilanti is ready for public use, the Friends of the Border To Border Trail has announced.

The trail, with a crushed concrete walking base, stretches from the Michigan Avenue bridge across the Huron River, south to a pedestrian bridge across the river leading to Waterworks Park. A usable trail also goes east from the pedestrian bridge to Park Street, going by the old Gilbert Park baseball diamond. This trail also follows the approximate route for a future segment of the cross-county Border To Border Trail.
