Expansion of Eldridge Park Trail completed

The City of Sugar Land cuts the ribbon for the expansion of Eldridge Park Trail.

The City of Sugar Land announced that the expansion of Eldridge Park Trail was recently completed.

The project was supported with a $15,000 Great American Trails grant from the National Recreation and Park Association and the Darden Foundation.

"Thanks to the Darden Foundation, the NRPA and the Sugar Land Legacy Foundation, residents can now enjoy longer leisurely strolls along Eldridge Park's newly expanded walking trail," said Director of Parks and Recreation Jim Browne in a press release.

"Local parks and trails are community resources supporting conservation and environmental sustainability," Browne added in the release. "The Great American Trails grant helped improve the infrastructure at Eldridge Park and contributed to the multitude of benefits our trail system provides the community."
