Construction kicks off on a major two-mile stretch of the Marquette Greenway Trail, linking key areas and bringing the 60-mile Chicago-to-New Buffalo route closer to completion. This segment bridges a gap within Indiana Dunes National Park, connecting its eastern and western sections once Porter and Burns Harbor finish their portions. Despite soggy ground and a modest turnout, the groundbreaking marked a long-awaited milestone for advocates who’ve battled doubts and weather. Meanwhile, the park itself is building a 5.6-mile section, while Porter and Burns Harbor tackle their own critical pieces. These trails aren’t just scenic—they’re economic engines and quality-of-life investments, with Northwest Indiana’s network exploding from 13 miles in 1990 to over 200 today, and sensors logging 1.4 million trail visits last year alone.
