Plans for a new trail linking Madison to McFarland (and all of southeastern Dane County) will be unveiled at a February 27 public information meeting. The Lower Yahara River Trail will extend from the Capital City Trail at Lake Farm Park alongside an existing active rail line to McDaniel Park in McFarland, spanning the Yahara River in the process. It will be a combination of paved surface, boardwalks and bridges, and will create a major off-road bicycle commuting and recreation route through an area where cycling has long been challenged by Madison's lakes, wetlands and rivers. The public meeting will be at 7 p.m. in the Lussier Center at Lake Farm Park. Contact Chris James, Dane County Parks, 608-224-3763 for more information.
