Get rid of the tracks and train, that brings NO value to our growing city. Our trails here are pitiful, but this will help improve that!

This trail would be a game changer for the town! As a resident of Sunblest homes, I would love to have this trail go through the downtown area. It would make crossing 116 so much easier, and running/walking more enjoyable as well.

A trail is good for the economy and good for Fishers' built environment. It will move our city forward.

This land would be used year round by many residents. Much better use of the property.

Although Fishers has many trails, most of them are not long. We need trails longer than 10 miles. I personally use the Monon Trail to train for mararthons because of the long length of the trail.

I would love a trail, but imagine the cost of this project. Imagine how expensive it would be to remove the tracks, pave the path, and cut back all of the plants. Not to mention that the overgrown trees and bushes are home to thousands of animals. There is a lot to take into consideration.

As a resident of Fishers, I wholeheartedly support converting the Nickel Plate rail line into a multi-use trail. It would be such a great asset to the community.

" Hello! My name is {ENTER YOUR NAME} and I am a concerned community member writing to you today to ask that you please strongly support the plans to remove the segment of the Nickel Plate Road rails, between Noblesville, IN and Indianapolis, IN. The opportunity to build a pedestrian and bike pathway replacing the rail line is the preferred solution that would strengthen the connections between the communities with a walk/bike trail. Again, I urge you to removal of the rails and replace them with a multi-use trail linking our communities. Thank you

This trail will benefit so many more people than the train ever affected. We need this!

A multi purpose trail provides an amenity to ALL Fishers residents. It promotes physical fitness, a provides a conduit from residential to commercial for those who don't or who choose not to drive, and provides the ability to reduce traffic congestion at every street that crosses the current tracks.
