Objective
The Depot Avenue Rail Trail is an existing, three mile paved trail. CRA improvements include trail resurfacing; additional site furnishings, including benches and trash receptacles; landscaping; and updated signage for the quarter mile section of trail between SW 11th Street and SW 13th Street. Additional improvements have been investigated including widening of the trail from 8 to 12 feet between SW 11th and SW 13th Streets as well as the addition of more trail entry points.
