- Busch Creek Greenway walking path opens in Washington, Missouri.
Months ahead of schedule, city leaders and representatives from KJ Unnerstall Construction cut a ribbon Monday afternoon to unveil the new Busch Creek Greenway, a now 3-mile path that connects the Rotary Riverfront Trail to Washington High School and Jefferson Street.
“I think it’s a great amenity that will run through the heart of town,” Washington Parks and Recreation Director Wayne Dunker told The Missourian while standing at the corner of Jefferson and Eighth streets where the trail begins. “It seems like a lot of our park amenities are focused on the north and east part of town.”
The project, which city leaders said has been 25 years in the making, was made possible by a $580,162 grant from the federal government from a program specifically designated for non-motor-vehicle infrastructure projects, such as sidewalks or bicycle lanes. The city also contributed about $145,000 to the project.
City leaders anticipated the project would take six months and be completed in January. They said they were particularly excited that the project connects the high school with the city’s trail system.
“I think the biggest thing that we said from day one when we put the application together was just getting access to the school campus,” said Washington City Engineer John Nilges. “There’s not a lot of sidewalk access to those facilities, so that was always kind of a big goal for us.”
Nilges said the city is considering adding a trailhead marker in the future.

Hi Old Man, here in Northeast Ohio I have a greenway trail in my backyard. It's always nice to get out and
go for a ride, especially when the woods are too muddy. I stay off the roads, car drivers are crazy these days.
I wish I had a dollar for everytime I got caught riding when it started raining. Ride on, Old Man. Cheers.
Hey, hey Chuck! Sometimes a nice leisurely ride is just what the doctor ordered. In my case it couldn't be any further from the truth. My Doc told me to take it easy for a while to make sure everything is good and and healed before I get to crazy on the Fatty. I also avoid the roads as much as possible. Once someone threw a full water bottle at me, they missed. 🤣 Another time someone actually shot me with a soft air gun pellet from a moving car. It hit the inside of my right thigh, soft or not it hurt like H3ll!! Cheers to you as well @chuckmoll1611 🍻
Really nice to get the tour! 😎🚲🤟🏽
Glad you enjoyed it @bikedad7432! Thanks for returning to the channel and checking out this video! Stay safe out there brother!!
THANKS FOR NEW VIDEO!
You're very welcome, Maxim!! I appreciate you checking it out, and your comment
@ABAKORSKIY 😎
@@OldManFatBike THANK YOU. I'M A FATBIKER TOO. IF POSSIBLE, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A VIDEO ABOUT THE BIKE LIGHT (FRONT AND REAR) YOU USE AT DARK AND NIGHT TIME.
I would if I did any night riding, unfortunately, I don't really do much of that @ABAKORSKIY. Sorry, I can't be of any help with that subject.
That river front trail looks serene, like it.
Hey, Chandler! Thanks for checking out this video!! The Riverfront Trail is very serene early in the morning and in the evening. Take care, @harpstone. 😉
Always fun to play in the rain every now and then, by the way love the car.
Hey, welcome back my friend! I hope you're doing well! Thanks for stopping by once again to check out my antics @JustRideZipp2001. It is a fun little 🪲😅
Hey Jens, glad to see ya back at it. Looking good out there.
Nice looking V Dub, as well.
Always admire how simple you keep it all. I know it's a lot of work!!!
I don't mind the rain either.
As always.......
STAY FAT.
Howdy Bob! Sorry it took me so long to reply. Sometimes I have too many irons in the fire! I thought I'd have more time once I retired, not so much. It's funny how that works 😂
As always, your comments are inspiring to me. I always do my best to make my videos as interesting as I can. I don't always hit the mark and I learn from that. That little 🪲 is yet another thing that take some of my time away. Actually, I wouldn't have it any other way. I'll stay FAT if you do the same @bobscott2553!!
Nice ride old man! Keep on gittin’ it!
Thanks! Will do Jimbo! I appreciate you and your comments @jameshollister3975 😊✌️
Great to see a new video
I'm pleased you returned to check it out Tim!! I hope all is going well for you @fatride! 😊✌️
Hello again, Jens!
I really love the Gojira like growling sound of your tires in the close ups!
Especially with the highpitched sound of your cassette... ❤
Nice camera work again (THAT took a lot of time, this time. Above all the trafficlight shots, I asume.)
Yours Ulrich
Thank you very much, Ulrich! I always enjoy reading your comments. Thanks for your long time support!! I hope all is going well for you and your loved ones in Germany @NegativeSk8r!! 🙌✌️
Great stuff. Love the beetle! Greenway is one of the of about 10 or 12 walks Max the big poodle dog and I do around Washington. Great meeting you the other day and seeing the work being done on the house. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for checking out my little corner of CZcams, Tom! It was nice meeting another one of my neighbors. Thanks for subscribing to my channel, @tomw324!! 🍻 😊
Good cruising. Two or four wheelng.
Hey Jose! Lets not forget the three and one wheeling folks!! There are some people who prefer to ride three wheelers and some that prefer a unicycle. Thanks for your comment @josereneducharme142 🙌😎
Gotta love the growling sound of fatty tires on pavement.
Here in Florida if I ride my fat bike on pavement I get stares. People have never seen a fat bike I guess. Therefore, I avoid pavement… and people.
Yup Steven, those Fat tires on pavement sounds almost like a 4 X 4 Truck running down the road! If you've seen any of my other videos, you know I never avoid riding on anything 😂 Thanks for checking out this video and I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment @Steven_Falcon!!
