Partial Trail Closure

A portion of the Pleasant Valley Trail will be closed for pipe replacement work that has begun on the western side of town.  We anticipate this closure to last over the next 2 – 4 weeks. The pedestrian/bike bridge will still be accessible to cross. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope to get this opened back up as soon as possible. The pink highlighted portion of the map below is where the closure of the trail will approximately be located.
