OVERVIEW
RCTC, in coordination with the Riverside County Regional Park and Open-Space District (Riverside County Parks) and other project partners, is proposing the construction of a 12.8-mile section of the Santa Ana River Trail (SART). When completed, this section will provide a direct trail connection through Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties.
The proposed 12.8-mile section in Prado Basin would promote pedestrian, equestrian, and cycling trail use with nature-viewing opportunities and provide a fully connected active transportation option for southern California. Work is planned to be completed in five phases.
