The extension will improve connectivity east of the Township Line Road trailhead to the Hendricks County/Marion County line, where the new Raceway Road monument sits. “The Town of Plainfield is excited to make this final connection of the Vandalia Trail within the Town’s limits,” said Town Manager, Andrew Klinger. “We look forward to working with Hendricks County in the future on our shared vision for connecting Plainfield’s trail to sections of the National Road Heritage Trail built by the County.” This newly constructed portion of the Vandalia Trail will not only enhance
the recreation and alternative transportation opportunities for residents, but it will also intersect with an existing path along the Ronald Reagan Parkway that connects Plainfield to the Town of Avon and the Town of Brownsburg. “On behalf of the Town Council, we are grateful the State saw the value in investing in our trails masterplan,” said Robin Brandgard, the Town of Plainfield Town Council President. “Plainfield is known regionally for our trails, parks and our Splash Island Waterpark, and we are eager to expand our trail network to create a more accessible community for those who live, work and play here.” Planning and design for the project is set to begin immediately with construction activity targeted to get underway in 2022.
