Yes, it is the Rock Island Trail State Park. The plan is to have it open from Pleasant Hill to Windsor by or in December of this year, so it should be getting close to being finished. Kansas City has purchased the Kansas City to Pleasant Hill section and plans to have parts of it (from near the sports complex to south of Lee's Summit) opened in 2018. I'm guessing they will have an on-road route filling the gap between Lee's Summit and Pleasant Hill, MO.
