IN THE NEWS
Portion of Parr Park Trail - Temporarily Closed
In efforts for the Trinity River Authority (TRA) to conduct necessary work to transfer the flow to new pipe, closure of a portion of the trail between Parr Park and the intersection south of Heritage and Rosecliff Terrace will be temporarily closed beginning Tuesday, February 13. This closure is anticipated to be in place for several weeks so that crews are also able to complete the abandonment activities of the old infrastructure and ensure that this section of the trail has been reconstructed. The repositioning of the trail in this area will enhance the user's experience. TRA will place closure signs along this area with construction fencing at Parr Park Bridge and at the Heritage trail intersection. Thank you for your patience.
