Kiosks and directional signage for DeKalb County’s bike trails will soon become a reality thanks to a $15,000 grant from the DeKalb County Community Foundation to the Live Healthy DeKalb County initiative.

Funded projects include installing 48 directional and way-finding bike route signs along established bike routes in DeKalb and Sycamore, four message centers to display trail system maps and repair of the Peace Road Trail.

Grant funds also will  be used for educational promotions and special events to engage the community to use DeKalb County’s bike trails. The goal of this project and Live Healthy DeKalb County is to make DeKalb County a healthier community.
