If you use the Scioto Trail, don’t miss this information about the Franklinton/Souder Avenue trail connector, which will build a new pedestrian bridge over the Scioto River and a new trail along Souder Avenue to West Broad Street. The project will tie in thousands of residents and employees to the regional trail network and complete the popular 3-mile downtown trail loop, which includes the Scioto Mile, COSI and the National Veterans Memorial and Museum. The trail will undergo construction to build the new pedestrian bridge and trail, complete with lighting and additional tree plantings.
For everyone’s safety, the trail is temporarily closed at Souder Avenue. A temporary detour path has been constructed on the north side of the Scioto River, which will allow the path to remain open heading upstream to 5th Avenue. See the detour map. Construction is set to be completed in July 2024. Check out the department’s facility and alerts updates page to find information on alerts, closures and hazards for the department’s trails, parks and facilities.
