Cushman-Pierson Trails Connector
- Status
- Funded in 2011
The Peninsula Metropolitan Park District will use this grant to buy 9 acres for a trail to connect the Cushman and the Scott Pierson Trails on the Gig Harbor side of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, and then develop .5 mile of trail and a trailhead with parking, a restroom, and a picnic area. If the property is not acquired, it most likely will be sold for commercial business use. Trail connectors to the beach would be developed in a later phase. The district will contribute $1,206,247.
