The Paul Ambrose Trail for Health (PATH) is one step closer to becoming a reality.
Monday evening, Huntington City Council discussed the first phase of the long-awaited initiative. If approved, the ordinance would provide labor, materials and equipment for the initial phase of the project. The PATH trail would give Huntington residents access to several miles of walking and biking paths.
The PATH trail was named for the late Dr. Paul Ambrose, who died in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Ambrose was a family doctor in Arlington and was flying to California for a conference on preventing obesity in young people on Sept. 11, 2001. He was on American Airlines Flight 77 when terrorists took over the plane and crashed into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.
