- Project basics: We are designing a trail project that will complete a gap in the Southwest Regional Trail that currently exists in Downtown Chaska. We would build a 2-mile segment of paved trail that would start near Athletic Park on 1st Street, go through Downtown Chaska, and connect to the levee trail near Stoughton Avenue. This trail extension will help connect communities, neighborhoods, downtown businesses, parks, and regional and state trails.
- Status: The 1st phase of the project is currently underway. A new pedestrian tunnel is being built under Highway 41 between Cy's and Dolce Vita as a part of the Downtown Highway 41 project. The trail extension construction is scheduled to start in 2024. As the project progresses, we will provide updates.
