Indiana State University River Campus Trail
HWC provided design, coordination, and construction administration for the River Campus Trail Project. This urban trail connects the Indiana State University campus to a growing area of campus along the Wabash riverfront, west of US Highway 41. The final design included a meandering trail to bring pedestrians safely under U.S. Highway 41 along an existing railroad corridor to the track and field stadium and along the top bank of the Wabash River. Custom engraved concrete planters serve as a safety barrier between vehicular traffic and the trail.

North Vernon, IN
Muscatatuck Trail
As a part of the city’s Stellar Communities effort, HWC led the design and implementation of the Muscatatuck Trail, which connects the Muscatatuck County Park to downtown North Vernon with a multi-use trail. The trail begins in downtown North Vernon and extends south through several neighborhoods along a former railroad right-of-way before ultimately connecting to the Muscatatuck County Park. The county park has existing mountain biking and hiking trails, which serve as a natural connection to this multi-use trail.

Fall Creek Trail Extension
HWC led the design and engineering of the Fall Creek Trail Extension Project, which extends the existing shared-use path from Skiles Test Park to Fort Benjamin Harrison Park in Indianapolis. The 10-foot-wide path winds along the scenic Fall Creek corridor and includes portions of trail within the floodway, allowing trail users to experience the flowing waters of the creek. Work included construction of a sidewalk across the Shafter Road Bridge, which provided a critical connection to Fort Benjamin Harrison State Park.

Remington, IN
Community Park Trail
HWC worked closely with the Town of Remington to secure a grant from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Land and Water Conservation Fund to develop a trail system within New Park. Main goals of the project were to create a one-mile long walking and biking trail to connect all areas of the park, including their popular splashpad. A small footbridge and trail node with bike racks and a bike repair station were also included.

Princeton Trails
As a part of the city’s Stellar Communities effort, three trail projects were implemented—the Toyota Trail, the Heritage Trail, and the Tiger Trail. The City of Princeton engaged the HWC team to lead the trail design as well as the development of a wayfinding system. The wayfinding system included custom trail markers and map kiosks. HWC also developed a logo that was incorporated into bike racks and the overall theming of the trail system.
