The AIT will parallel the Northbound lanes of SR A1A from the Grady Bridge to Fletcher Ave.
The bike trail through Big and Little Talbot Island State Parks just recently opened.
The New Grady Bridge (left) mirrors the old bridge over the Nassau Sound between Duval and Nassau Counties. One will provide the link between the AIT and the Talbot Island trails, vital parts of the East Coast Greenway.
Work on the Amelia Island Trail (AIT) is progressing from the Grady Bridge at the southernmost point of Amelia Island northward to the Fletcher Avenue intersection. When finished in 2013, the off road bike trail will look much like the Talbot Island bike trail in Northeast Duval County that will south from the Grady Bridge through Little and Big Talbot Island State Parks to Ft. George and the Mayport Ferry. Together the two will form an important link in the East Coast Greenway, a national bike trail that when completed will link South Florida with New England. Funds for the AIT came from grants from the Florida Department of Transportation and the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization.
