conversion to a hiker-biker trail is in process; the surveying is either done or mostly done; the county (again, Yeah, Eric Olson!) has come through with some money for survey and design phase. there may be something newer than this to report, it's been a couple of months since i've heard a report on this.<br>
<br>the thing i'd be interested to know -- up til now, everything i've heard as been premised on the idea that the Cafritz property development would move ahead and they would build their portion of the trail, while the town would build the portion from there south to the Hyattsville line (where EYA will pick it up). given the downturn in the housing market and the silence from the Cafritz team, i'm gonna guess their timeline has shifted some... at least. has the town and council considered this and is there a strategy for an all-town project or discussions with Cafritz about them building their portion of the trail even before they're ready to move ahead with the larger project?<br>

so... i know i'm a little late on this one but... i just found a practical<br>
use (in my life at least) for the trolley trail that connects college park<br>
to town center and beyond. what is the status on this movement? i remember<br>
hearing lots about it, then i didn't. what can a regular old citizen (who<br>
may use the trail to bike to work) do to get some attention to this little<br>
path? any updates are welcome :) best, drena<br>
