The city of Cedar Park made progress on several projects to improve and expand public parks in 2025. In 2022, Cedar Park voters approved $42 million in bonds for parks and recreation projects. Some notable updates from 2025 include:
Brushy Creek North Fork Trail
- Cedar Park leaders cut the ribbon on the Brushy Creek North Fork Trail in January 2025.
- The 3-mile trail starts near the intersection of West Parmer Lane and East Whitestone Boulevard.
- The trail is a concrete shared-use path that is between 8-10 feet wide, and it runs along the north fork of Brushy Creek Road, according to the city.
- To the south, the trail connects to the Brushy Creek Regional Trail near Brushy Creek Road and integrates into the larger regional trail system.
Timber Trail connection at Bell Park
- The connection of the trail at Bell Park to Timber Trail was completed in March, according to the city’s website.
- Bell Park opened in late 2024 along Cluck Creek and includes a playground in addition to approximately 4,000 feet of new trail.
- The city’s Engineering & Capital Projects department says it is working to add a “feature” tree to the trailhead and make corrections to address accessibility and flood survey-related issues.
