The City of Wichita is investigating a fire that was set in two drains causing a section of the Red Bud Biking trail to collapse. The Red Bud biking trail is a beloved path in Wichita. Chris Majors takes a ride on his green bike on the Red Bud every single morning rain or shine. However, today his daily bike ride didn’t quite go as planned. “I can’t pass through right now,” he says while pointing at the large white sign that reads ‘Sidewalk Closed.'” This is because of a fire that was set inside two culverts underneath the bike trail between Woodlawn and Rock Road. The city says these pipes were about 42 inches in diameter and almost 60 feet long. The fire in them caused a part of the path to collapse which makes the trail unsafe for bikers.
