Interurban Trail - 3rd Ave SW to Stewart Road
Description:
The project will build approximately 1 mile of 12-foot wide asphalt trail through the City of Pacific. The project is an extension of the existing 14-mile Interurban Trail which spans between employment centers in Auburn, Kent, Tukwila, Renton and Seattle and ends at 3rd Avenue SW in Pacific. Several trail sections totaling nearly 2,000 linear feet have already been built by private devlopers as a condition of development. The Interurban is a north-south off-road, non-motorized route that is popular with over 500 daily pedestrians and bicyclists. Access and parking are provided at numerous locations along the trail. The goal of this project is to extend the Interurban Trail through the City of Pacific and interconnect with other planned trails, mainly the Foothills Trail in City of Sumner. Once linked, the Interurban and Foothills trails will provide almost 35-miles of continuous trail between dense urban centers and rural communities. The Valley Cities Mayor Association, through the support of Forever Green Council, a non-profit entity promoting multi-use trails in Pierce County, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding stating their support and collaboration to expand their regional trail system.
