The Sioux City Council will be asked Monday to authorize the Parks and Recreation Department to submit a grant application to the Iowa Department of Transportation for $150,000 in Iowa State Recreational Trails Program funding for a mountain bike trails project at Cone and Sertoma parks.
The public improvement project includes the construction of new shared-use trails, highly optimized bike-only trails and mountain bike amenities.
The Cone Park site, 3800 Line Drive, will be located adjacent to the Cone Park Lodge and will provide trailhead access to 10.5 miles of natural trails and a single-track trail network with various difficulty levels. Beginner and intermediate skills development areas are planned, as well as pump and tot tracks and a progressive jump line.
