Landon Trail Gets $2M Boost | Topeka News

Kansas just got a $2 million federal boost to extend the Landon Trail by two miles, connecting historic rail corridors and creating a family-friendly path between Shawnee Heights Road and 121st Street near Overbrook. Built on the old Missouri-Pacific Railroad, this expansion will link the Oregon and Santa Fe National Historic Trails — making it uniquely significant. Construction kicks off in 2028 with completion targeted for July 31. Part of a statewide $37.2 million initiative funding 33 projects, this trail upgrade supports safer biking and walking routes while strengthening community connections across the state.
