This section of the facility is 2+ miles in length and was developed by the Great Rivers Greenway District. It was completed in October 2006. This project included a wide variety of improvements in addition to the 12' wide asphalt dedicated trail. Two abandoned railroad bridges were retrofitted to allow for safe passage for pedestrian and bicycle traffic Bridge over I-44 Two new parking lots were built along the trail, one in the City of Oakland and one in the City of Kirkwood. Both parking lots utilized permeable pavers in the parking areas, as an environmentally friendly design. City of Oakland Parking Lot City of Kirkwood Parking Lot The parking lot at the Sappington House was expanded for trail users also. The Sappington House and the City of Kirkwood parking lots also include stand alone restrooms for trail users. Parking Lot expansion at the Sappington House Two pedestrian signals were built on St. Louis County right of way and one existing MoDOT traffic signal was upgraded to accommodate trail users. This project also included pedestrian activated flashers, lighting, signing, striping, landscaping, fencing, retaining walls, storm sewers, bicycle racks, benches, and resting areas. Access provided construction phase services for the project including layout of all proposed improvements. Grant’s Trail Phase IV – Trail Planning and Engineering Access Engineering, LLC is the Engineering Consultant providing planning and engineering services to Great Rivers Greenway for this multi-modal facility in St. Louis County. Access has identified a location in this fully built out area, where the dedicated trail can be extended to local roads for an on-street connection to the River Des Peres Greenway. The project includes a 10'-12' wide dedicated asphalt trail with a pedestrian bridge spanning Gravois Creek. Grant's Trail Phase V - Trail Planning and Engineering Access Engineering, LLC is the Engineering Consultant providing planning and engineering services to Great Rivers Greenway for this extension from the newly constructed trail head in the City of Kirkwood. The facility will consist of a combination of dedicated trail and on-street connections through the City of Kirkwood to the Meramec River Greenway.
