E. Lansing Adds 1.4 Miles of Non-Motorized Pathways on Saginaw Street

In partnership with the City of East Lansing, the Michigan Department of Transportation administered the construction of 1.44 miles of eight-foot-wide, non-motorized pathways along the north side of Saginaw Street from Harrison Road to Stonegate Lane, and along the south side of Saginaw Street from Audubon Road to Alton Road.

"The Saginaw Pathways interconnects a number of businesses, school buildings and neighborhoods and provides alternative transportation means for pedestrians and bicycles to travel between destinations," says Todd Sneathen, director of the Department of Public Works for the City of East Lansing.

The completion of the Saginaw Pathways Project is a result of extensive planning and preparation from the City of East Lansing. More than five years in the making, the project broke ground in April of this year and was completed last month.

"The completion of this project has taken many years of planning and construction and we’re very excited see it finished,” says Sneathen.
