Downtown Pullman Riverwalk
- Status
- Funded in 2003
The city of Pullman, in Whitman County, will acquire the land for and construct a bicycle / pedestrian path through the downtown core. The eight to twelve foot wide paved path will be located along the South Fork of the Palouse River and will complete a missing link in the city's path system. Previous projects have constructed most of a seven mile loop around the northern part of the city. This is the remaining segment to complete the loop. The construction phase will include the installation of the path, two bridges over the river, redevelopment of a portion of an existing street into a trailhead, and associated amenities such as lighting, fencing, benches, and landscaping. A midpoint spur trail will provide a connection to the Pullman Central Business District via the trailhead. The citizen group Pullman Civic Trust is leading the effort to complete this segment of the trail system and is assisting in local fund raising efforts. The majority of the local match for the project will come from the proceeds of a bond approved by Pullman voters in 1998 for trail projects.
Location
The site is along the south and north banks of the South Fork of the Palouse River in downtown Pullman. The project will begin near the intersection of Spring Street and Main Street and extend westerly along the river, across Kamiaken Street, and on to the intersection of Grand Avenue and Whitman Street. The trailhead area is in the existing Pine Street road section located between Main Street and the river. The site can be accessed via SR270 (Main St.) at the east end or SR27 (Grand Ave.) at the west end.
