Work to be completed
Haven't finalised exactly but most likely we will be working on the current reroute and maybe other random stuff we find along the way.

Why work is necessary
The reroute is to go around a couple of sections of 'fall line' trail that is rutting out and to avoid a degraded Ck Crossing.

Trail Care Walkthrough/Preview
The alignment has been partially constructed so you can take a look any time. Please don't ride through as it is unfinished.
