Twisp Community Trail

Status
Funded in 2011
WWRP Applicant: Town of Twisp WWRP Category: Trails WWRP Grant: $75,107 Applicant Match: $80,757 Project Type: Acquisition County: Okanogan  Legislative District: 12th 

Twisp will use this grant to buy right-of-way across six pieces of property for a trail that will connect to the town’s park. Visitors along much of the route will have views of the Methow and Twisp Rivers from low bank areas and dike trails. This is the first phase of a larger town trail plan and ensures public access and neighborhood connections to more than 1 mile of Twisp and Methow River shoreline. The Twisp Community Trail will connect neighborhoods south of the town park and west of Highway 20 to the park by a safe pathway. Currently, children have to walk on the road because there are no sidewalks. The Town will contribute $80,757 in donations of labor and property interest.
