The highly anticipated project completion of Phase I of the MSU to Lake Lansing Trail opened to the public on December 8, 2023. This trail provides everyone an easy, safe, and enjoyable option for non-motorized travel between the MSU Campus and Lake Lansing Park South, along approximately five miles of connected pathways and trails.
Phase I includes a bridge that will take pedestrians and bicyclists over the Red Cedar River behind the MSU Community Music School. The trail will then take users along the banks of the Red Cedar River to the north side of the CN Railroad tracks.
Check out the montage of the before and after construction phases of the now completed trail. The "before" footage took place in February of 2023 and the "after" footage took place in June of 2024.
