Show Notes

What once was old is new again for the Butterfield Trail as the historic stagecoach and military route is being repurposed for cyclists in Northwest Arkansas and the River Valley.

Northwest Arkansas Regional Planners are expected to vote in December to recommend approval of a route through Washington and Benton counties that will be part of a bicycle touring route that parallels the historic Butterfield Stage Route between Jefferson City, Mo., and Fort Smith, about 500 miles in total when complete.
