Third fitness trail: another community success for North Ridgeville – cleveland.com

NORTH RIDGEVILLE, Ohio Its time to celebrate in North Ridgeville. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held on July 16 to open the Heart and Sole Fitness Trail.

Parks and Recreation Director Kevin Fougerousse said, This trail will be the third phase of improvements to the walkability of the complex--the first two being completed three and four years ago.

Fougerousse noted there is even potential for further additions to the trail in the future. Our goal was always to finish this to make it a trail system within the city of North Ridgeville, he said. The current project began in May and concluded in mid-June.

The six-foot wide, asphalt trail is designed for a variety of uses, including walking, jogging and biking. Fougerousse said it will wrap between and behind several of the baseball fields at the complex. The overall goal, he said, is to promote health and wellness and to keep moving forward with trails throughout the city.

Total cost of the project was $148,454. We received an Ohio Department of Natural Resources grant in the amount of $67,482, said Fougerousse. We also received a donation of $15,000 from North Ridgeville Heart & Sole. The remaining balance of $65,972 for the trail was paid from the Parks & Recreation Improvement Fund. General fund dollars were not used for this project.

The socially distanced ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of the North Ridgeville Heart & Sole Fitness Trail will take place at 6:00 p.m., Thursday, July 16 at the Shady Drive Complex, 37077 Shady Drive.

My hope for the community is that they now have another trail they can utilize in our parks. We have been active over the last few years to add trails throughout the city. (This) trail will be called the North Ridgeville Heart & Sole Fitness Trail, said Fougerousse.
