Vision Circuit Trail Conservancy

THE DALLAS CIRCUIT TRAIL VISION To create in Dallas the premier urban trail network in America. Upon completion, the Dallas Circuit Trail will be a 50-mile hike and bike trail within the city that links people to neighborhoods, DART stations, employment centers, natural open spaces and recreation centers. CIRCUIT TRAIL CONSERVANCY THE DALLAS CIRCUIT TRAIL THE DALLAS INTEGRATED CIRCUIT TRAIL More than a decade ago, the City of Dallas created an ambitious master plan for a trail system to unify Dallas and make our city more livable and pedestrian-friendly. While many miles of trail have been built, the current trail system is fragmented as a result of time and budget constraints. Dallas needs a bold new vision for our trails - a truly unified trail system. THE PLAN Turn Dallas’ existing trails into a nationally-recognized and truly premier trail system. By building an additional 11-miles of new, strategically placed connecting trails, we can connect East Dallas, Downtown Dallas and the Trinity River Corridor through a 50-mile loop of hike and bike pedestrian trails. To make this dream a reality, the city needs help from civic-minded individuals, foundations and corporations. THE PURPOSE “Dallas is home to beautiful natural open spaces and destination spots which draw residents and visitors to our active and vibrant city. We must connect to these city jewels with our neighborhoods and most importantly, our neighborhoods to one another, through a truly contiguous trail system.” -Mayor Mike Rawlings THE CIRCUIT TRAIL CONSERVANCY The Circuit Trail Conservancy (CTC) will serve as an umbrella organization to lead fundraising and outreach efforts for The Dallas Integrated Circuit Trail. The Board of Trustees will oversee the funding, design, construction, operation and maintenance of The Dallas Integrated Circuit Trail in collaboration with the public sector and other non-profit organizations.
