Those of us that live in Platte City have a network of walking trails that we utilize. The latest improvement is linking walking trails from Hills of Oakmont, Lakes at Oakmont, New Bedford Falls and Timber Creek to the main trail into the Parks and Recreation Land. This is going to be a great addition as it will connect several trails together for better and safer access.
