Dawn Fredrickson, Katy Trail Coordinator on 9/29/2010 9:10:49 PM:
The Katy Trail will be closed west of Pilot Grove, from Harriston Station Rd. (mile marker 206.5) to Ewing Rd. (mile marker 209), for repairs to the Taylor Branch culvert. The trail is estimated to be closed for a month, from Oct. 4 to Nov. 5. There are no safe detour options, so Katy users will need to avoid the area. Signs will be placed at Pilot Grove and Clifton City trailheads announcing the closed section. Signs and barricades will be placed at Harriston Station and Ewing roads to prevent users from accessing this section. For a status update, check our website: http://www.mostateparks.com/katytrail/index.html. Or, email me at dawn.fredrickson@dnr.mo.gov. Thanks.

Good that maintenance is being done.....timing is bad though! That takes out a very good Fall ride between Sedalia and Boonville for the best month of the year. Is it an emergency repair??

It might help to post the closure at some of the other trailheads last month too. I'd hate to think I was going to ride to Sedalia from Rocheport and then get all the way to Pilot Grove before there was any indication that the trail was closed.
