City continues work along Walnut Springs linear park/trail Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- The city of Seguin is moving forward with its improvement work along the Walnut Springs Hike/Bike Trail. The Seguin City Council recently got an update on the repairs and expansion work being done along the linear park. City Engineer Melissa Reynolds says the city is wrapping up work to repair a bridge abutment in Walnut Springs Park. “This is a great project. It was just a repair of an abutment failure that happened sometime in the past few years. So, it was a
minor project, but it was a big benefit,” said Reynolds. Reynolds says the hike and bike trail is being expanded all the way down to Max Starcke Park. This trail covers a large area already, with roughly 2.5 miles that stretches from FM 78 down to just below the Seguin Public Library. “And it’s a 14 foot roughly wide trail that comes from Hwy. 78 all the way through town down to Convent Street, and eventually, very soon, we’ll provide a north-south collector all

the way to Starcke Park. It’s a big benefit to the city. It goes past many areas in the in the city, including Park West, the Juan Seguin (campus) site, along with downtown and the library. It also runs in close vicinity to the police station. So, there’s a lot of great features along the site,” said Reynolds. The expansion work on the trail continues. Reynolds says it’s a roughly $5 million expansion project, that’s partially funded by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). Walnut, pg. 3
