Hats off to the Nassau Board of County Commissioners for approving on December 12th the execution of the agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for maintenance of the Amelia Island Trail (AIT) bike path/trail on A1A from the Nassau Sound Bridge to East Amelia Island Parkway. It will cost the county about $27,000 a year but it is well worth the investment. The AIT team, led by Phil Scalan, Mike Pikula and others, have been working long and hard to make this off road section of the East Coast Greenway a reality. A rejection of this agreement by the Nassau BOCC would have meant that the funds allocated by the FDOT would have gone elsewhere and also would have severely decreased any chances to gain any more FDOT funds for future trails in Nassau County. Bids will now go out immediately and construction will start soon. The weather is nice to go bike riding on Amelia Island so head on over to Fernandina Beach. For more info on the AIT, visit
