The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $150,202.00 to the Missouri Department of Transportation on June 25, 2025, under the Recreational Trails Program (CFDA 20.219) to develop recreational trail infrastructure in Marionville, Missouri. The project deliverables include construction of a 0.27-mile, 10-foot-wide asphalt trail; installation of 700 linear feet of fencing; development of a trailhead facility featuring a 12-slot, 191-foot by 41-foot asphalt parking lot with directional signage; and creation of a 165-foot by 6-foot Monarch Waystation butterfly garden.

This formula grant supports eligible trail-related activities under the Recreational Trails Program, which provides states with federal funding derived from motor fuel excise taxes to develop and maintain recreational trails and associated facilities for both motorized and non-motorized uses. The project aligns with program priorities for trailside and trailhead facility development, trail construction, and educational elements that promote environmental protection and safe recreational trail use.
