Groundbreaking for Trail Expansion Later this Month

Naperville trailwalkers, rejoice! The groundbreaking of the West Branch Riverway Trail will be happening September 27th at 1:30 p.m. at the Wil-O-Way Commons, 1071 W. Jefferson Ave. in Naperville. The West Branch Riverway trail is set to connect McDowell Grove to downtown Naperville. This new portion of the trail will extend the West Branch Riverway north from Wil-O-Way Commons to just north of Ogden Avenue, where it will join an already existing trail system at McDowell Grove Forest Preserve. The expansion is just under a mile and will proceed through a new railroad underpass north of Wil-O-Way Common and through a new underpass at Ogden Ave. The trail construction is slated for completion in 2012. Envious trailwalkers should probably get in touch with some Naperville movers now!
