Letter: Sunnyside neighborhood would benefit from trail

Where is the Sunnyside trail — or where should it be?

By: Jim Wedde, The Republican Eagle

To the Editor:

Where is the Sunnyside trail — or where should it be? Think how handy it would be to have a safe path for children going and coming from Sunnyside Elementary and Twin Bluff Middle schools.

I’ve been biking around that area often and got to thinking about where Grace Street changes to another street. What if a trail started by that fire hydrant? I went back there and it looks like it would make a unique and awesome trail.

Some of the streets and sidewalks there and on West Avenue are steep. They can really dangerous for children.

The more I got to thinking and talking about it to others, the more I was told “Get this idea in the paper.”

The trail could go around the bluff water tower, across West and to Pine Street. Brown signs with yellow letters could mark the trail.
