Riverfront Park Trail Development
- Status
- Funded in 2001
The City of Castle Rock seeks WWRP aid to develop a riverfront trail system along 7,420 feet of Cowlitz River frontage created from dredge spoils following the eruption of Mt. St. Helens. The trail would connect natural features with community and recreational facilities. Currently, there are no public trails to serve residents within the service area. The proposed project would meet part of this need, and transform the dredge spoils into a useful community asset. Broad volunteer participation from civic, community, business, government and youth organizations is evident in project planning and site preparation to date. WWRP support will allow continued community involvement in completing this phase of the Park Plan. Project elements include construction of a paved pedestrian trail and support facilities such as restrooms, parking, and benches.
Location
To reach the project area, take Exit 49 from I-5. Go west into downtown Castle Rock on Huntington Avenue (SR 411). Turn right at ""A"" street SW and go four blocks. Turn right into the City Shop at 360 ""A"" St SW, just before the bridge over the Cowlitz River. Park is accessible from Dike Drive SW and Mosier Road.
