In 2016, Fred Rogers applied for a CMAQ Grant. Here is his proposal.
In December 2016, Bruce Day, Tom Evans, David Shumaker, and Brian Wray reviewed Rogers route and, in their opinion, was unfeasible. Also, the City did not receive this grant.
They submitted their analysis to Mayor Clary. Here is their Letter , survey, and video of their survey.
The decision was the City needed to focus on achieving the Sanders Ferry Greenway, which required another seven years to happen.
Day and Evans attempted to make the CMAQ proposal work (read here), but still it was not workable in 2017 and even in 2023 to be even less potential.
Day and Evans had another route option but, with the City's decision not to pursue the project until the completion of the Sanders Ferry Greenway, they did not survey the following most likely route.(orange line shown below).
Two-thirds of the route is on the power-line easements, not on personal and HOA property, and safe, not near auto-traffic.
