The Cities of Milwaukee, Greenfield, West Allis, and St. Francis are partnering to study two WE Energies powerline corridors extending from the new, 4.5-mile Greenfield Powerline Trail for their potential as shared-use trails. The two corridors include:

  1. North-South Corridor: north of W. Coldspring Road to the Hank Aaron State Trail
  2. East-West Corridor: Pondview Park east of S. 35th Street to the Oak Leaf Trail along Lake Michigan

Project Goals

This study will set the stage for future trail construction by:

  • Analyzing safety and terrain
  • Determining routes
  • Identifying on-street connections and improvements
  • Determining trail phasing
  • Preparing cost estimates
