The $6 million land purchase for the developing Three Creeks Trail was made possible by the City of San José (the City), the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (Open Space Authority) and the Parks and Recreation Department of Santa Clara County (the County). This land will add an additional mile to the City’s interconnected trail network. The Three Creeks Trail is designed to expand recreation and transportation options within the urban core, and create linkages between the Los Gatos Creek, Guadalupe River and Coyote Creek regional trails. “This project would not have been possible without the commitment and partnership of the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority and the County of Santa Clara,” said Mayor Chuck Reed. “The Three Creeks Trail will serve as a crucial link in our existing urban trail network and bring us closer to achieving our Green Vision of creating 100 miles of trails within San José.” As lead negotiator and title holder for the land, the City finalized the land purchase from Union Pacific Railroad on December 23, 2011. -
