TART Trail Updates

New trails and trailheads set to open

There’s a lot happening with TART Trails this fall. With the reopening of Traverse City’s Grandview Parkway (hooray!), came the new and improved TART Bayfront (pictured). Changes include a widened, 16-foot trail with dedicated spaces for bikes and pedestrians, new connections to stops like Sunset Park and the Senior Center, and safer crossings. TART will celebrate with a ribbon cutting on Nov. 21 at 4:30pm at Clinch Park. Also on the nonprofit’s checklist includes a new trailhead at Fouch Road on the Leelanau Trail, complete with a water station and public art installation, and the Deepwater Connector, part of the Nakwema Trailway project that links Bayside Park, the Acme Connector, Acme Road, and the Deepwater Point Natural Area. The former will be complete for a ribbon cutting on Nov. 13, while the Deepwater Connector is expected to be finished in early December. Learn more at traversetrails.org.
