DR9604-SY 981020 (3)RECREATIONAL FACILITIES
The Fort Worth District posses extensive expertise and experience in the planning, design, and
construction of recreational facilities. Aesthetically pleasing, user friendly recreational features can
be added to the project in a timely and cost effective manner.
Hike & Bike Trails
The construction of a concrete hike/bike trail is one possibility. The trail could begin at Grapevine
Lake and follow the stream corridor in a general easterly direction, crossing the creek via new
footbridges at various locations to provide access to existing and proposed recreational facilities
along either side of the corridor. At the eastern
end of the project, the trail could join the Trinity
Trails. The Trinity Trails Corridor will be a
continuous strip of public land that can
accommodate hike, bike, equestrian and nature
trails. It will serve as the primary link for
recreational opportunities within a "world-class"
Regional Trinity River Greenway. Trails within
the corridor spine, and along connecting spurs,
will provide altema, te transportation routes to
parks, schools, work, and shopping areas.
Other Facilities
Park shelters and picnic tables could be placed within the project area. Lighted, off-street parking
areas can be included for access to the trails and picnic areas. Park benches, drinking fountains
and hose bibs, trash receptacles, and signage could also be included at the picnic areas and along
the trail system.
