An alignment shift of approximately 1.43 miles of the newly proposed trail section extends between Deforest Townline Road and a property owned by Ohio Edison. The new alignment has been shifted to the eastern property line and follows along the abandoned rail line. As a result of the shift in alignment, one (1) additional wetland totaling 0.298 acres and three (3) additional streams totaling 137 linear feet will be impacted by the project. Approximately 2.48 acres of additional tree clearing, that provides potential suitable habitat for Federal and State listed bat species, will occur. Due to the alignment change six (6) wetlands and two (2) streams will no longer be impacted by this project. Information on the alignment shift, including mapping depicting the newly proposed alignment shift and the anticipated additional ecological impacts will be available on the Trumbull County Metroparks webpage http;//trumbullmetroparks.org/. Construction for the project is scheduled to in begin in the summer of 2024.
