Deciding how it will look

Imagining the future pathway and bridge

The recommended design has a truss bridge with a sweeping curved path on the east side.

This design minimizes impact to environmentally sensitive areas while creating a gentle slope that meanders through the landscape.

Now that we have a design, we want your feedback on what the pathway may look like. This includes things like lighting, seating or viewing areas, landscaping and other artistic elements.
