City officials cut the ribbon Monday on Phase III of the Harbor Brook Trail, which extends the city’s linear trail from Coe to Columbus avenues. The city’s completed linear trail system currently runs from Cheshire to Red Bridge in South Meriden, to Oregon Road near Hanover Pond behind two city schools, and onto Coe Avenue. The project has cost $12.5 million to date. The state DEEP gave the city $7 million for the 1.1 miles in Phase III, said City Engineer Brian Ennis. The city created two parking lots for trail usage. One lot is on the corner of Cook Avenue and Summer Street and the other at 59 Columbus Avenue. Ennis said there may be times when work requires a short closure. But for the most part, the trail is open.
