The City of Fishers wasted no time in approving the bid removing the railroad tracks along the Nickel Plate.  Once the other local government approvals are done, it is expected that 30 days later, crews will begin removing the tracks.

The City of Fishers expects to begin the first phase of construction on the Nickel Plate trail this fall.  The project is funded through a bond issued as part of the 2019 city budget.

The Fishers Board of Works and Public Safety officially approved acceptance of the bid at a meeting Wednesday afternoon.
