As of late, the rail-banked land of the former BNSF railway has been converted to a "linear park", called the Redbud Trail.  In Andover, the already completed 1.7 stretch of trail goes from 159th St ends at Meadowlark St.

Ultimately the goal of both Wichita and Andover is to develop the trail which begins in Goddard, all the way to Augusta. Currently, the Wichita portion ends at Woodlawn.  Wichita has however, confirmed they will be making efforts to complete the trail from Woodlawn to 159th so that it connects the two cities.

Central Park also has a much path going back to the south end of the park that can be utilized to get a few more steps out of your walk!Central Park Running Trail
