Lansing’s parks and river trail are still open during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Usage could begin increasing, as Spring arrives.
Lansing Mayor Andy Schor is encouraging use of the city’s parks while continuing to practice the social distancing people are becoming accustomed to.
The city’s 16-mile-long River Trail isn’t limited to Lansing residents. Terri Kuhn took a walk on the trail with two sons and their dog.
“We figured it was probably one of the safest options to get out, some fresh air, and kind of have a distance from people on the walk. It was a nice day, before the rain moved in.”
The River Trail also connects with several neighboring communities. The trail and the parks in Lansing are open to the public from dawn to dusk.
