SUMMARY:Queen City Century
DESCRIPTION:The Queen City Century stands as one of the region’s premier cycling events. The event provides an unparalleled experience for riders of all skill levels. Commencing in the vibrant center of Springfield at the esteemed Mother’s Brewery\, the route leads participants away from the urban landscape and into the picturesque countryside. \nThe ride is fully supported with a mechanic on duty (thanks A&B Cycle!)\, roving SAG drivers will be monitoring the route all day\, pickup in case of mechanical or other problems\, and well stocked rest stops with snacks and water every 8-16 miles. The route is well marked on the road and electronic route files for your GPS device or the free app will guide you turn by turn. EBikes are welcome. \nWith distances reaching up to 100 miles\, the Queen City Century offers both challenging terrain for an early-season century ride with plenty of climbing\, as well as a more accessible flat-century route for those who prefer a gentler incline. Shorter variations of both routes\, anywhere from 10 to 100 miles\, are offered as well. \nThe Queen City Century is dedicated to supporting MoBikeFed’s statewide advocacy work through the event’s proceeds. \nLogo of Missouri Bicycle and Pedestrian Federation

DESCRIPTION:This is a drop-in open house; you may come and go as you please. Please note that the planning team will be making remarks at 5:00 pm and 6:00 pm (the same remarks will be presented both times).\n\nThe Chadwick Flyer Trail offers a vital active transportation corridor between the City of Ozark and the City of Springfield.

Current efforts are focused on the approximately 12 miles between Sunshine Street in Springfield and the Ozark Community Center in Ozark.\nThe focus of the February 20\, 2024\, open house will be to share information and provide another opportunity for residents to review and provide comments on the proposed trail alignment between Kissick Avenue and Sunshine Street. Additional design\, engineering\, and public input will be conducted before the construction of the trail segment(s).\n\nProject Information:\nOzark Greenways contracted with Crawford\, Murphy & Tilly (CMT) to conduct a more in-depth study of this area. Project partners are studying this segment to determine how this trail\, the Lake Springfield Plan\, the James River Greenway trail\, and the Galloway Creek Greenway trail may best integrate.\nThe Chadwick Flyer Trail is included in the following adopted plans: the Forward SGF Comprehensive Plan\, the Springfield-Greene County Parks & Recreation Plan\, and the 2017 Ozarks Transportation Regional Trail Study.\n\nMore information: https://www.ozarkgreenways.org/…/chadwick-flyer-trail…/\n\nTrail information: https://www.ozarkgreenways.org/…/chadwick-flyer-trail/
