IRONWOOD - City Commissioner Jim Mildren is impressed with the new stretch of the Iron Belle Trail from Ironwood to Bessemer.
City commissioners learned Monday the non-motorized trail construction is nearly finished. The trail will tentatively be dedicated at an Oct. 24 ceremony at the Bessemer end.
The Ironwood stretch of the hiking-biking trail has been in use for more than a year and a Friends of the Iron Belle Trail group has organized. It will hold a clean-up day Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon, originating at Depot Park.
