RICE CREEK WEST REGIONAL TRAIL
Rice Creek West Regional Trail Reconstruction
This project focuses on the reconstruction of the regional trail from the Hwy 65 tunnel to Locke Parkway to ensure the trail meets or exceeds ADA standards. Site analysis including site survey work began in early 2025. A community engagement meeting to discuss conceptual design occurred June 2025 with no concerns for the design or proposed trail alignment. Geotechnical evaluation, and community comment period (though Parks website) will occur starting at the end of January 2026. Final design, permitting, construction documents, and bidding anticipated early 2026 with construction beginning summer/fall 2026.
