The newest Animas River Trail (ART) pedestrian bridge and trail section will be opened for public use on Wednesday, June 23.  The quarter mile ART addition includes a 250 foot pedestrian bridge over the Animas River and provides connection between the half mile portion of ART behind the Durango Mall and the 1.2 mile stretch of ART between the La Plata County Humane Society and River Road.

The community is encouraged to use the new section of trail and pedestrian bridge as part of Bike to Work – Clean Commute Day on Wednesday, June 23. 

 A ribbon-cutting celebration will be scheduled for mid-July.
