“It’s going to be transformative for the western part of Birmingham,” said Christina Argo, strategic projects and innovation division manager for Birmingham’s department of transportation.
Updated:This is a conceptual view of how a planned trail running west to Legion Field could generate activity and revitalization in the area. Birmingham officials are offering more details about the recently announced nearly $22 million federal trails grant and what is means for the city.
The $21.6 million grant, along with city funding, will create the Birmingham Urban Trail and Multimodal Corridor. The corridor is a 2.5-mile trail that will run through the Civil Rights District downtown, the Smithfield neighborhood and surrounding communities headed west. The urban trail will extend from City Walk near the BJCC south to Morris Avenue.
“It gives us the opportunity to attract businesses to our community,” she said. “So many industries are looking for downtown areas that are walkable and livable and bikeable as an asset. “It’s an opportunity for us to grow economically in Birmingham and in the 7th Congressional District.” Along the with new trails will also come more comfortable mass transit bus stops and trees lining the pathways, Argo said.
