ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - The New Mexico Off Highway Vehicle Alliance plans to use more than $322,000 in federal funds and $126,000 in matching contributions for trail work in the Cibola National Forest.
The project for the Cedro Peak area was announced Friday.
The group plans to use the money to construct new trail segments, rehabilitate existing trails and install signs on over 60 miles of trail. Some of the money will also go toward trailhead improvements and trail entry control.
The group's partners include the Sandia Ranger District, New Mexico 4 Wheelers, the Black Feather Trail Preservation Alliance and R&S Powersports.
The work is expected to start in the spring. Recreation planning experts from Pan Pacific Services will help manage the project. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
