5.13 Proposed Trails Related Compatibility and Special Area Studies <br />A number of additional studies or planning efforts related are recommended to provide more detail on <br />the feasibility and cost of potential projects, identify acquisition needs, and refine proposed trail routes. <br />Figure 5-7: Proposed Compatibility and Special Area Studies <br />Name Extent* Length Description <br />Ridgeline Trail Existing 24,800 If This study would evaluate alternative approaches for <br />Shared-Use Corridor Ridgeline Trail accommodating shared-use trail corridors within these <br />Compatibility Study from Fox pedestrian-only reach of the Ridgeline Trail. This <br />Hollow Road to would include evaluation of existing use patterns, <br />Blanton Road evaluation of alternative approaches for integrating <br />and Ribbon mountain bi _kes (shared-use trail upgrade, parallel <br />Trail (segments trail, or bypass), and assessment of alternative routes. <br />6a,6b,23a,and This planning effort would include outreach to key <br />23b) interest and user groups and result in a recommended <br />approach that could be implemented. <br />Trailhead Parking Citywide -This study would assess existing and proposed <br />Study trailhead parking facilities and make <br />recommendations for improvements. This would <br />include evaluation of existing and projected capacity, <br />safety, surfacing, signage, and associated <br />neighborhood impacts. <br />Eugene Willamette Willamette 62,000 If The study would identify issues and opportunities <br />River Water Trail River from corridor related to the Eugene portion of the Willamette River <br />Enhancement Study Eastgate for non-motorized recreational use (canoeing, <br />Woodlands to kayaking, inner tubing, standup paddle boarding, etc.). <br />Green Island The study would make recommendations for public <br />safety, navigation, and facility ~pgrades. <br />Canoe Canal Water Canoe Canal 12,000 If This would build upon recommendations from the <br />Trail Enhancement intake in 2013 Fish Passage and Recreational Boating Feasibility <br />Planning and Eastgate Study and identify a plan of action for making <br />Implementation Woodlands in functional improvements to the Canoe Canal system <br />Springfield to for non-motorized recreational use (canoeing, <br />(in conjunction with the outfall near kayaking, inner tubing, standup paddle boarding, etc.). <br />Willamalane PRO and the Ferry Street The recreational improvements would be <br />other partners) Bridge implemented in concert with the other proposed <br />enhancements for fish passage, habitat, and flood <br />control. <br />Evaluation of Utility Eugene -This planning effort would identify utility easements <br />Easements for that have potential to accommodate recreational trails <br />Future Trail Use and outline steps needed for securing access <br />easements. <br />Eugene Recreational Citywide -This study wou'ld identify recreational walking routes <br />Walking Routes throughout the city neighborhoods that would utilize <br />Planning trails and on-street connections to create a web of <br />neighborhood accessible routes of varying length and <br />difficulty. Routes would be evaluated and selected <br />based on quality of experience, access to points of <br />interest, and user safety. The study would recommend <br />route enhancements such as directional signage and <br />safety improvements such as sidewalk infill and <br />intersection upgrades. <br />Eugene Trails Plan -2018 Page 45 <br />Priority <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I
