Stretching from Parmer Lane near Whitestone Boulevard down to the Brushy Creek Regional Trail at Brushy Creek Road, the Brushy Creek North Fork Trail project will consist of roughly 3 miles of shared-use trail, Senior Project Manager Marisa McKnight said at the meeting. Once construction is completed, the trail will be a 10-foot-wide concrete path with associated lighting and fencing.
Funding sources for the project include the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization, the Texas Department of Transportation and the Community Development Corporation Type B funds, according to the city. The estimated project cost is $2.97 million.
Construction is anticipated to begin in January or February, McKnight said, and it is projected to last for a year.
“This is an exciting development,” Mayor Jim Penniman-Morin said.
