(Cedar Rapids, IA) -- The Linn County Conservation Board considering developing the Grant Wood Trails into Springville, but is yet to decide on what surface the trail extension will be.
Right now, starting at Creekside Road, the trail is dirt.
Critics of a paved path are concerned about erosion and loss of tree canopy, while gravel trail supporters say the trail will become more handicap accessible.
Preliminary plans feature a 10-foot gravel trail.
