Wasson Way

The city of Cincinnati is taking steps to complete a one-mile portion of the biking and walking trail through Avondale to Reading Road and Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive in the heart of Uptown.

A listener wants to know if there was a person named Wasson, and if so, what did they do to get the road named for them.

The potential connection could link Wasson Way to paths that stretch across Ohio.

The new .8 mile extension of the cycling and walking path runs across a deserted rail bridge between Woodburn Avenue in Evanston and Blair Court in Avondale.

Mayor John Cranley says it's always been his goal to open Phase 5 of the Wasson Way Trail during his tenure. With about two weeks left on the job, he cut the ribbon during the grand opening Wednesday morning.
