Big 4 Trail Master Plan

HWC led the develop of a master plan to extend the Big 4 Trail throughout Boone County with the help of Friends of Boone County Trails organization. The trail currently exists within Zionsville, Whitestown, and between Lebanon and Thorntown. The goal of this project was to fill in missing trail segments, with specific emphasis on the segment between Whitestown and Lebanon.

The work included coordination with property owners and local stakeholders. Additionally, a trail summit was also held to gain public input on the development of the trail. The combined input helped create the overall master plan incorporating feedback from several communities.

As a result of this master plan, Boone County communities have received over $7.5 million in grant funding and installed or paved 13.8 miles of the trail.
