Upstate New York Bike Trail Gets Funds For Completion

The long-awaited recreational bike/pedestrian path between Lake Placid and Saranac Lake is back on track. Thanks to a $1.43 million boost in funding, trail construction will push the trail forward from Averyville Station to Union Depot. (An exhaustive trail study conducted back in 2001 by the Bikes Belong Coalition that compared the costs and benefits of the then proposed Saranac Lake - Lake Placid Recreational Path to 61 other rail trails concluded that the trail was feasible and would become a significant enhancement to local recreation and transportation.)
