Location

Join the project partners and consultants for a presention of the Big Creek Trail and Neighborhood Connector Plan to Brooklyn City Council. Nearing completion, the study, led by the Floyd-Browne Group, is developing preferred alignments for a 3-mile all-purpose trail expansion through the city that will seek to connect the Metroparks Zoo and Brookside Reservation to the Big Creek Reservation south of Brookpark Road. It examines connecting parks, neighborhoods, civic and commercial areas throughout the city while identifying opportunities for interpretive exhibits and ecological restoration.

The $75,000 study is being funded by a $60,000 Federal Transportation for Livable Communities Initiative grant program administered through the Northeast Ohio Coordinating Agency with local matches from the cities of Brooklyn, Cleveland and Parma, Cleveland Metroparks, and Friends of Big Creek.
