Anderson Township's $2.2 million Five Mile Trail officially opened Friday,
although some bicyclists and walkers have been using it for several months.

The paved hike/bike trail runs from State Road, north of Anderson Center and
Anderson Towne Center, through mostly wooded areas to Bartels Road near
Turpin
High School.

The 2-mile-long trail is called Five Mile because it extends from the
northern
end of Five Mile Road. It links a network of 10 miles of sidewalks the
township
has constructed in recent years to connect neighborhoods to one another, to
schools, to the Anderson public library branch and to commercial areas.

Lessee...it's a million-dollar trail that cost over two million, it's
called Five Mile Trail, and it's two miles long.

I'm sure it's very nice,

The 18-foot-high Al Mink Bridge spans Hunley Road near Royal Green Drive at the
trail's midpoint. Mink, who died earlier this year, was a part-time township
employee who also donated countless hours to various projects. He was
instrumental in negotiating permanent easements with property owners on the
route of the Five Mile Trail. The hike/bike project involved years of planning
and was supervised by the Ohio Department of Transportation.

It's in Ohio, I guess. Who cares?
