“…The other missing link in the ring road is a ten-acre strip of land along I-94 between the intersection of S. Maple and Scio Church roads and the end of Brookfield, itself an extension of Eisenhower west of Ann Arbor-Saline Rd. Lightly traveled S. Maple was widened in anticipation of a connection to Eisenhower Pkwy.--which was originally known in planning documents as Maple Blvd. The unused right-of-way is now Eisenhower Park. It is difficult to find even a deer path through the dense underbrush that has grown up there alongside I-94 (neighbors have reported numerous coyote sightings in this thicket)….
The gap on the south side, Eisenhower Park, has no paths through it at this time. But Eli Cooper, city director of Transportation Systems Planning, reports that there are long-range plans to construct shared-use pathways there. Though no funding has been identified, the city also wants to improve the footpath that follows the unused Huron Pkwy. right-of-way.”
