MVRPC backs Bellbrook-Spring Valley bikeway

Bicyclists can take the Little Miami Scenic Trail from suburban Cincinnati, through Spring Valley (shown here) all the way to Springfield.

The Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission included the Bellbrook-Spring Valley bikeway connector among the seven projects it recommended for federal funding for the government’s 2010 fiscal year, which begins on Oct. 1.

The bikeway would link Bellbrook (at Sackett-Wright Park) with the well-established Little Miami Scenic Trail in Spring Valley. The routing of the bikeway is still an issue, as some property owners have said they are opposed.

The MVRPC recommended $4.7 million in federal funding for the $6 million project. Final MVRPC recommendations will be given to the region’s congressional delegation in March, so the delegation can promote the projects in Washington for funding.

Also on the MVRPC’s federal funding request list was $10 million for work on U.S. 35 interchanges in the Beavercreek area.
