The Spokane Centennial Trail will one day link with the Columbia Plateau Trail.

Centennial Trail W. Link Bridge & Trail

Status
Funded in 2001
WWRP Applicant: State Parks WWRP Category: Trails WWRP Grant: $499,969 Applicant Match: $1,273,256 Project Type: Development County: Spokane  Legislative District: 3rd 

The project is part of a phased improvement of the Spokane River Centennial Trail. It includes a new Spokane River Bridge, exclusively for trail use. The key to implementing the Master Plan for the Centennial Trail is a river crossing west of the Spokane urban core. This new river crossing will provide for future trail developments that will parallel the Spokane River, be separated from vehicular traffic, and link to another long distance trail, the Columbia Plateau Trail. The project includes the construction of a 600' long bridge, 2,000 lineal feet of asphalt trail, landscape improvements, native trees, shrubs/grasses/wildflowers, and trail and interpretive signs.

RCO Project Number: 00-1425

Location

The project is located along the Spokane River, approximately one mile west of the Maple Street Bridge, Spokane, Washington, and includes the north and south banks of the river at an abandoned railroad bridge crossing. The proposed bridge crossing utilizes existing concrete piers that span the entire river width.

State Senators cherry pick projects, ignore WWRP rankings

The State Senate's proposed budget slashes Washington Wildlife & Recreation Program funding to almost half of what Governor Inslee recommended while favoring poorly ranked projects over highly ranked ones. The WWRP's independent ranking system is the key to its years of success, ensuring only the best projects get funded. Take action & urge your legislators to restore full funding today!

LWCF full funding bill reintroduced

Baucus (MT), Burr (NC), and Wyden (OR) & 4 cosponsors have introduced a new bill, the “Land and Water Conservation Authorization and Funding Act of 2013,” to provide full, permanent and dedicated funding for LWCF.
