Castle Rock Riverfront Trail Extension
- Status
- Funded in 2008
Castle Rock will use this grant to extend its Riverfront Trail, which is 1.5 miles and runs from Lions Pride Park to a new sports complex on the opposite side of the Cowlitz River. The 10-foot-wide paved trail is primarily along the top of the Cowlitz River levee and passes through several neighborhoods and parks. Castle Rock will use this grant to add lighting to an existing section of trail, extend the trail nearly .5 mile north, and add a fishing platform at the river's edge, parking, ten fitness stations, bike racks, benches, and signs. Work also will include creek restoration and riverbank revitalization. The addition of landscaping and opening up more river views will enhance the overall trail experience. Castle Rock will contribute $206,185 in equipment, labor, materials, a state grant, and donated cash, equipment, and labor.
