Municipalities look to connect Fish Creek to Sister Bay through trail system

You may have the opportunity to travel from Sister Bay to Fish Creek without using a car. 

 

Officials from the Town of Gibraltar, the Villages of Ephraim and Sister Bay, and Peninsula State Park have discussed the feasibility of creating a connectivity trail through the three communities. The Town of Gibraltar will discuss its involvement in the proposed project when its board meets on Wednesday. 

 

Gibraltar’s proposed portion of the trail would take users from south Ephraim through Peninsula State Park and its golf course along the Highway 42 corridor. It would wind around Gibraltar Elementary and Secondary School before ending near Fish Creek Park. The town is considering working with Bay Lakes Regional Planning to create a trail plan for the community and sending a request for a proposal for design and engineering. Although there is no money budgeted for trails or even the design of trails, there are several grants the town could pursue to help get things rolling in the right direction.

 

According to the Town of Gibraltar's agenda packet, the Town of Egg Harbor has also been approached to help extend the proposed trail system further and make more grant opportunities available as it would be multi-jurisdictional. The Town of Gibraltar Board will tackle the issue along with others during its meeting at Gibraltar Town Center on Wednesday at 7 p.m.

 

The meeting is also available via Zoom.
