A new bike and pedestrian trail is scheduled to be extended this summer along East Duffy Street near Campus Corner, connecting Campus Corner to north Norman.
More than 20 residents voiced their opinions about the extension that will be constructed practically in some of their front yards Thursday at the Norman City Hall Complex.
“Right now, I’m just trying to weigh out the pros and the cons of [the extension],” said Liz Jackson, a resident who’s property will be used in the project.
The trail, called the Legacy Trail, will replace old sidewalks from the intersection of Duffy Street and Jenkins Avenue with wider paths along the south side of Duffy Street and along the east side of Asp Avenue between Duffy Street and Campus Corner.
The second meeting was scheduled for March 2, but might be delayed because the first meeting was delayed during the ice storm, Norman Parks Planner James Briggs said. If it is rescheduled, it is still expected to be in early March, he said.
