Descrption: Bloomington is a very bike and trail-friendly city and features 2 major rail-trails. Both rail-trails start at Tapp Rd./Country Club Rd. top the north and intersect near Church Lane and Clear Creek. The Bloomington Rail-Trail continues southward to Dillman Rd., southwest of SR37. The 1887 Harris Ford Bridge spans Clear Creek at Church Lane just south of the intersection of the two trails; this impressive bridge was relocated from Warren County in 2003.

Manager: Bloomington Parks and Rec

Future Plans: The B-line trail will bring the trail northward into downtown Bloomington.  There is also hope that the trail will one day continue southward toward Bedford.  The Jackson Creek Trail is under construction.
