Additional features of the trail include a boardwalk, ADA curb ramps, retaining walls, signage, a park bench, pavement markings, and erosion control measures.<\/p>\n<p>Construction of the project began in early 2023. The Liberty Mills Road Trail project represents a $1.49 million investment and was funded through the Coventry Lane Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District and a portion of the City\u2019s allocation of American Rescue Plan Act dollars. The contractor was API Construction Corp. and A&#038;Z Engineering designed the trail.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur greenways and trails provide opportunities for residents and visitors to enjoy all that Fort Wayne has to offer in a safe, fun, and family friendly manner,\u201d said Mayor Tucker. \u201cI\u2019m encouraged that the Public Works and Community Development divisions partnered on this project to add another important trail to our network. We\u2019re committed to meeting the needs of the public by providing enhanced quality of life amenities that position our community for current and future success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Several property\/business owners donated right of way for the trail. Partners included Frontier, John Diettrich Enterprises, Inc. (owner of Zesto Ice Cream), Dr. Fred and Christine Bokel of Fred E. Bokel, DDS, Family Dentistry, and Mark Hagerman, owner of the Aboite Corporation.<\/p>\n<p>With the completion of the Liberty Mills Road Trail, it now connects to 17.75 miles of existing trails in Aboite Township. The City of Fort Wayne now boasts 103 miles of trails within city limits, contributing to a total of 144 miles in the Fort Wayne Area Trails network.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the trails in City limits are planned, designed, constructed and maintained by the City of Fort Wayne, under the leadership of Mayor Sharon Tucker.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71709.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Mayor Tom Henry announces call for referendum vote on the gaming issue during a press conference on February 27, 2009.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='681af5a43d9cb88ec35b08304ade5240' data-image-id=\"199\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71709.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_71709.jpg\" data-title=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\" data-description=\"Mayor Tom Henry announces call for referendum vote on the gaming issue during a press conference on February 27, 2009.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"199\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_71709.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71710.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Mayor Tom Henry shakes hands with Allen County Councilman Paul Moss after the press conference announcing his decision to seek a referendum vote on the gaming issue.
