Bexar County Creeks and Trails Program

Bexar County Creeks and Trails Program

The Bexar County Creeks and Trails Program is a multi-year investment in a series of projects across Bexar County with River Authority providing project management services. The projects will continue or complement previous Bexar County and City of San Antonio capital investments, restore degraded aquatic or riparian ecosystems, improve water quality and flood control, promote the addition of trails and other recreational and park amenities, connect neighborhoods, public institutions, city and county parks to the linear creekway trail network, leverage funding with other project collaborators to promote cost-effectiveness and to serve as catalysts for future economic development along rivers and creeks.
