A spiral ramp that connects the lower and upper parts of Heritage Trail West is now open for public use.

What is it?

The ramp, which overlooks memorial park, is a part of the ongoing Heritage Trail West project, a 1-mile addition to the Brushy Creek Trail system, which will link the west side of Round Rock to the city’s downtown. Other project features include a 10-foot wide trail from Chisholm Trail Road to Mays Street; a pedestrian bridge with overlook to Brushy Creek; and improvements at Bathing Beach Park, Chisholm Trail Crossing Park and Memorial Park.

As the project nears completion, landscaping signage and signage work will still take place, according to the city's Facebook page.
