The city of Irvine will finally complete the last portion of the Jeffrey Open Space Trail (JOST) after receiving $14.5 million in state funding, presented by California state Sen. Dave Min’s office.

The trail, which opened in 2015 after $30 million in construction, is 3.5 miles along Irvine’s Jeffrey Road, spanning from Portola Parkway to the 5 Freeway. Its intent is to honor 500 years’ worth of local history, with landmarks at various points offering historical context of the area.
