Pacific will use this grant to build about 1/2 mile of 12-foot-wide asphalt trail through town, extending the existing 14-mile Interurban Trail, which spans between employment centers in Auburn, Kent, Tukwila, Renton, and Seattle and ends at 3rd Avenue Southwest in Pacific. The Interurban is a north-south, off-road, non-motorized route that is popular with more than 500 daily pedestrians and bicyclists. Once the trail passes through Pacific, it will connect with other planned trails, mainly the Foothills Trail in Sumner. Once linked, the Interurban and Foothills trails will provide almost 35-miles of continuous trail between dense urban centers and rural communities. The city will contribute $267,879 in cash and a federal grant. (08-1690)
