This trail will connect neighborhoods along Hillhurst to Ridgefield High School, filling a gap in pedestrian facilities on Hillhurst Road.
Ridgefield envisions an interconnected trail system that encourages healthy, active living, promotes pedestrian transportation options and independent mobility, increases community safety, reduces environmental impact, and supports greater social interaction and community identity. Pedestrian and trail improvements are a critical step to meeting this goal. However, areas of the city that developed prior to current pedestrian standards have created gaps in the city's network.
Background
The design was completed for this highly desired connection in 2022. The design includes a multi-modal trail, for pedestrians and bicycles, along the north side of Hillhurst Road stretching from in front of Ridgefield High School to just past 22nd Circle with a new connecting crosswalk to Sevier Road.

Planned Project - This project is in the long term plan for Ridgefield, but is not currently in Active development. Staff are looking for funding opportunities including grants and donations to build the trail.
