A section of the Rivergreenway near the Maplecrest Road extension project will close Monday for more than a year.
The work on the Maplecrest Road extension required the city to close the path near the construction zone. The quarter-mile section will be closed between the path access near Carrington Fields and the access near Kreager Park. While people may still use the path on both sides of the closure, there will be no access through the construction zone.
The city will post Trail Closed signs at the intersection of Pemberton and Niagara drives, at the Coliseum Boulevard trail spur and at the North River Road entrance.
The Maplecrest Road project will extend the road 1 1/2 miles from Lake Avenue to Indiana 930 and Adams Center Road. It includes a new trail to run along the Maplecrest Road extension for the entire length. There will also be an S-curve ramp from the new Maplecrest Road Trail to connect with the Rivergreenway.
