County discusses $3.8 million Butler County bike-path extension linking Rosehill to Wichita and Mulvane
Summary
Staff presented an agreement with Butler County for a roughly $3.8 million bike-path extension, with about $2.5 million covered by federal funds and local share to be split between Sedgwick and Butler counties.
County staff described an agreement with Butler County to extend a bike path that would allow continuous off-road travel from Rosehill into Wichita and on to Mulvane. The project total was described as about $3,800,000 with approximately $2,500,000 coming from federal funding sources.
"This will also take you all the way down to Mulvane," Lynn (staff) said, explaining the connection and that the extension was a long-term plan dating back to work on the corridor in 2007. Staff said local shares would be divided between Sedgwick and Butler counties; no formal vote was recorded in the meeting excerpt.
Next steps: staff will bring contract details and funding allocations back to commissioners for formal approval as required by procurement rules.
