Pokagon State Park Connection Planned
In Steuben County, a 2007 feasibility study explored trail connections to Pokagon State Park, helping guide future development. The City of Angola then began building its trail network—opening its first segment in 2010, with additional phases completed in 2016 and 2019. Meanwhile in DeKalb County, Auburn secured a 2009 Transportation Enhancement (TE) grant to build a trail segment along the former rail alignment from North Street to the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum, completed in 2011. Step by step, communities were building the pieces of a much bigger connection.
