REP. STEVEN LaTourette talks to the crowd at the dedication of the Western Reserve Greenway Trail Thursday morning. The event was held at the tunnel under Route 84, a project funded with money from the Civic Development Corporation and a federal earmark obtained by LaTourette. Ada Callahan-Sutter, co-chair of the Friends of the Western Reserve Greenway Trail, looks on.
Lots of people made Greenway Trail a reality
“This trail is just surprising in terms of how well it has been received,” Don Koski told the crowd. “I get more comments from people around the county from this trail than from anything else we do.”
Grippi described the trail as an “economic engine” that will help bring the county “closer to prosperity.”
LaTourette said it also can figure into Barack Obama’s health care initiatives, which include a strong emphasis on preventive health.
“I expect everybody here in the audience with a beer gut like mine, ought to be out here riding on this bike trail to make sure they don’t end up in the hospital,” LaTourette said.
