New MoKan Trail segment opens

Thanks to Austin’s Urban Trails Program with the help of partners Stonelake Capital Partners, pedestrians, cyclists and dog walkers now have a better way to get from Springdale Road to Govalle Park. A new quarter-mile section of the MoKan Trail now connects the two, providing a safe crossing below Airport Boulevard and expanding access to Govalle Park and the Southern Walnut Creek Trail. Take a look at the photos from the trail opening celebration, held Jan. 14, and you’ll see a lot of happy, smiling faces.
