The construction of a significant leg of the Santa Ana River Trail halted less than three months after it began, San Bernardino County officials announced. Work on a 3.8-mile segment of the multi-use trail connecting Redlands to San Bernardino stopped in late April when the county discovered a state-protected bird , the endangered Least Bell's Vireo , had settled in the area and established breeding grounds, officials said in a statement. The palm-sized bird found itself in the middle of a full-speed construction zone until April 21, when the county halted work on Phase 3 of the Santa Ana River Trail project.
