AUSTIN, Texas — A trail connecting Austin and Manor is now complete, ending a project that spanned over a decade.
On Saturday, city leaders celebrated the completion of the 5.5-mile trail that connects Manor with Austin's trail network.
"Greenspaces are very important and our residents have communicated those things to us over surveys and data that we've collected for some time and so it's been a priority for us," Manor Mayor Dr. Christopher Harvey said. "It's an important feature that we want to make sure our city has for today and years to come."
Manor's population has boomed significantly over the last decade, with the city's population growing by more than 170% between 2010 and 2020, according to U.S. Census Data.
