Sarasota County opens a northern segment of the Legacy Trail

The Sarasota Springs Trailhead, at Webber Street and the Legacy Trail, and the Ashton Road Trailhead should both be open later this fall, along with the remainder of Segment 2. The third trailhead, known as the Pompano Trailhead, which will be located near the Sarasota County Fairgrounds and will include 12 lighted pickleball courts and a community center, is scheduled to open the fall of 2022, along with Segment 3 and the North Port Connector. Currently there are signalized at-grade crossings for the Legacy Trail at Clark Road and Beneva Road. In addition, there will be a signalized crossing at Tuttle Avenue. The Florida Department of Transportation is designing overpasses for both Clark and Bee Ridge roads. The hope is for those to be built in 2024.

Nature in Sarasota-Bradenton-Venice: 10 best public parks, preserves

We love our famous, sugary sand beaches, but we also love experiencing the great outdoors in all its wild glory. With the Florida heat and humidity still bearable and school almost out, here’s our annual list of 10 favorite public parks or nature preserves in Sarasota and Manatee counties. These are places to relax and picnic or perhaps hike and kayak. Located both near and far from our biggest cities, these are oases where beautiful scrub jay and regal osprey dot the blue skies, with waters populated by jumping mullet, mellow manatees and, yes, the occasional alligator! Thanks to the pandemic, we spent a lot more time exploring during the past year. So, you should find more detailed entries as well as a couple of new ones. Covering places in Sarasota, Venice, Osprey, the UTC area, Bradenton and Palmetto, these parks and nature preserves are presented in alphabetical order.
