The Augusta Canal Trail will soon be expanding, making it easier for you to get out and enjoy it.

Soon, construction will begin on a $2.5 million access trail to the Augusta Canal from behind Top Golf and Bass Pro Shop on Riverwatch Parkway.

The canal trail connects the community from several different points, like Lake Olmstead and downtown, but soon a new entrance will make that connection even stronger.
