GetAbout Columbia trail projects delayed, but progressing
Several trails in Columbia are nearing completion, though others are still not ready for bikers and runners.
Much of the delay has been because of weather or some engineering issues. In a few cases, the problem has been with paperwork required by the federal government.
Ted Curtis, the Bike/Ped program manager at GetAbout Columbia said he expects the majority of GetAbout's biggest projects will be completed within 18 months.
"We're really coming down to the homestretch on the process," he said.
Police say they "know" who is responsible for the string of recent shootings and have added patrols to two areas to deter further violence.
The cancellation of tours in the fall is a precautionary measure against the spread of a deadly fungus among bats.
Aric Bremer and his father-in-law Billy Hendren brought their families together Wednesday night at the Boone County Fair to participate in the figure-eight race.
