In continuation of improvements to Escondido Creek Parkway, which opened in 2020, this project will extend the trail from the 5th Street entrance to the Elementary school, across the creek to a city park and end at a newly developed trail head at Helena Rd. The proposed concrete trail would be approximately 1.2 miles in length and ten feet wide with one low water crossing. Other park amenities will be procured as well park benches, trash receptacles, and pet waste stations.

Staff have removed two large log jams just downstream of Helton Nature Park, keeping the southern portion of the SASPAMCO Paddling Trail temporarily closed. Staff are working to contact adjacent landowners to support a land-based removal solution.
