FULSHEAR – Five local governments have joined together as a local government corporation to plan and build a 31-mile shared-use trail along a former rail line west of Houston and are hosting the third of a series of public meetings from 5:30-7 p.m. Monday, June 5, at the Irene Stern Community Center, 6920 Katy Fulshear Road, Fulshear. The 1093 Rails to Trails Local Government Corporation was established in February 2022 and is a non-profit organization acting on behalf of Austin County and the cities of Eagle Lake, Fulshear, Wallis, and Weston Lakes, according to a release. The LGC will enter an agreement with the Fort Bend Toll Road Authority to plan and build a shared-use path along a 31-mile stretch of former rail corridor. The trail will run alongside FM 1093 from Fulshear to Eagle Lake to provide hiking and biking opportunities for local residents, serve as a tourist destination, offer alternative transportation options between communities, and connect more communities with opportunities for connections to other trail projects in the region.
