New markers aim to make trails safer, more user-friendly

The Municipality of Anchorage and several park advocacy groups are working to make trails more bike and pedestrian friendly and safer for users.
On Tuesday, Mayor Ethan Berkowitz, as well as members of the Anchorage Park Foundation and Alaska Trails, were at Gorilla Park for a ceremonial ribbon cutting for new trail markers.
The wayfinding project has been in the works since 2014. Crews installed the markers every half mile of the Chester Creek Trail from Westchester to Russian Jack.
