06.08.2011 Trail Updates

Construction projects over the next month may cause minor delays along the Huckleberry Trail starting June 13:

Several bridges will receive new wooden decking and railing, causing either that trail section to close temporarily or delays up to 15 minutes, according to Parks and Recreation Director Mitchell Haugh. Two of the bridges are between Hightop and Merrimac and one bridge is between Merrimac and Christiansburg. There will be signage posted before the bridges when there are delays.
On June 20–21, a new restroom facility will be installed in the Coal Miners Park area. The toilet facility is being paid for by donations from the Friends of the Huckleberry, a private donor and a contribution from the County.
