The effort covers approximately 18 miles of the trail’s eastern section in Washington and Grayson counties, and outside Damascus and Whitetop Station, which are owned and managed by the agency. Kiewit will reconstruct 31 trestle bridges, damaged treadway and other features along the trail, ensuring it retains its former footprint and a grade of two to seven percent.
