Work on the trail was completed and the trail was opened on December 10, 2016 .[1] The trail provides residents of the Kansas City region direct trail access to the {{convert|240|mi|km|abbr=on|adj=on}} Katy Trail State Park, the longest rails to trails trail in the U.S. The Rock Island Trail uses "abandoned" (embargoed and out of service) right-of-way of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad between Pleasant Hill in Cass County and Windsor in Henry County where it meets the Katy Trail.[2] An additional {{convert|144|mi|km}} of Rock Island right-of-way is in the process of rail banking by the Surface Transportation Board. Missouri State Parks is evaluating adding this additional 144 miles to the Rock Island Trail, extending it from Windsor to Beaufort. When completed the combined Rock Island and Katy trails will form a network of {{convert|450|mi|km|abbr=off}}, though as of 2016 no timeline has been given for completion of the Beaufort extension.[3] [4]In May 2016, Jackson County, Missouri acquired {{convert|17.7|mi|km}} of right-of-way from the Union Pacific Railroad, of section of line from the Truman Sports Complex to south part of Lee's Summit, to bring the trail into Kansas City. Work will begin in 2017, with the first section to open in 2018. There currently is a gap between Lee's Summit/Greenwood and Pleasant Hill, with the route unknown at this time.
