Fox Cities Trestle - Friendship Trail Conversion Project
Fox
Cities Trestle - Friendship Trail becomes popular destination!
Officially opened
on August 27, 2005, the trail has proven to be extremely popular with local
residents and visitors to the Fox Cities. The trail is open year round and is
a valuable transportation and recreational trail link between the City and Town
of Menasha . It features a unique lift bridge over the Menasha Lock (sponsored
and built by Miron Construction, Inc.). The 1,600-foot long, lighted pedestrian
bridge is the longest in Wisconsin and includes a center pavilion area with
seating, and several fishing platforms along the way.
The award winning
trestle project is part of the Wisconsin DNR's Friendship Trail that will ultimately
run from Stevens Point to Manitowoc. For more area trail information visit www.focol.org/greenways
