Dequindre Cut Greenway

This project will turn an abandoned rail corridor into a walking trail. Phase I of the greenway will convert one mile of the rail corridor into a non-motorized greenway linking the Riverfront and Tri-Centennial State Park to Eastern Market. The greenway will be recessed 20-25 feet and will be landscaped with both native and ornamental plants. The new greenway will provide a continuous 20-foot bituminous path for walking, biking and in-line skating along one side of the corridor. The other side of the rail corridor will be planted with grass in preparation for a possible future transit system. Access ramps will be built at Lafayette and Gratiot Avenue. Lights, security cameras and signs are also apart of the project
