January 2025 Community Open Houses

The Yolo-Delta Trail Coalition will be hosting two community open houses to share information about the Clarksburg Branch Line Trail Extension to Clarksburg.

The first open house will be held in Clarksburg at the Clarksburg Library Activity Room (52915 Netherlands Road) on Tuesday January 21st.

The second open house will be held at the West Sacramento Recreation Center (2801 Jefferson Blvd) on Thursday, January 23.

The doors will be open from 5:30pm to 7:00pm for both meetings. Attendees are welcome to arrive anytime between these scheduled hours to learn more about these exciting projects.

Planning is underway for the Clarksburg Branch Line Trail (CBLT) Extension project, a multi-use trail that will better serve bicycle, pedestrian, and equestrian users, and increase connectivity between West Sacramento and Clarksburg.

About the Project

The CBLT extension includes 6.4 miles of trail that will provide a key link within the Great California Delta Trail and SACOG’s Sacramento Regional Trail Network. Design of this segment of the CBLT is another step toward achieving the vision of a connected recreational corridor that is decades in the making and will be enjoyed by future generations. The project is currently in the environmental clearance process, which will continue through 2025. Design is anticipated from summer 2025 to summer 2026.

The CBLT Extension project area extends from the south City Limits of West Sacramento at the South River Road levee access and the former railway right-of-way owned by the City to extend the trail to the south. The trail will extend south until intercepting Willow Point Road and then will extend west of Willow Point Road in Clarksburg. The trailhead is proposed to connect north of the Old Sugar Mill.

 Project Highlights

• Promote connectivity between neighborhoods and communities by constructing a multi-use trail serving bicycle, pedestrian, and equestrian users.
• Enhance regional communication by integrating a utility corridor with high-speed fiberoptic connectivity.
• Create opportunities that connect the community with nature and encourage active transportation.
• Provide educational opportunities through elements such as interpretive signs that reflect local railroad and settlement history, share facts about local agriculture, honor Indigenous peoples, and encourage habitat conservation.
