The Northern Wasco County Parks and Recreation District has received a $2.6 million grant from the Oregon Department of Transportation for the Mill Creek Greenway project. The project is part of an overall goal of an interconnected trail system in The Dalles. District Executive Director Scott Baker says this will be a spur of the Riverfront Trail, but is very difficult to complete due to the steep cliffs in some areas. Baker says ODOT will do the construction, and it is to be built over the next three years.
