Syracuse will host a public meeting Monday evening to discuss the next phase of the Creekwalk extension project.

The plan is to extend the trail system south along Onondaga Creek, connecting neighborhoods and creating safer options for walking and biking. It’ll also add new trail sections.

City staff will present the preferred route, early design plans and take questions from the audience. The meeting begins Monday at 6 p.m. in the Brighton Academy Middle School Cafeteria.
