Wickes Park Multi-Use Path
In 2017, the City of Saginaw was awarded an Iron Belle Trail grant to conduct a study and develop a design for the Iron Bell Trail route through 1.84 miles of Wickes Park in Saginaw. Spicer Group assisted the City of Saginaw with the study of converting much of the existing drive in Wickes Park into a multi-use path. This covers approximately one half of the portion of the Iron Belle Trail that goes through the City of Saginaw.
The northern section of the trail consists of converting the existing vehicular drive to a multi-use path. The existing drive has deteriorated, and the City no longer wishes to maintain it as a roadway. From the boat launch south to the exit on M-13, a path is designed so it is separate from the existing roadway.
Spicer’s team was responsible for the design, survey, and cost estimates for the City for this project. Spicer Group is also currently assisting the City with applying for more grant funding for this project.
