Abstract
81 pagesThis prefeasibility study has been conducted in partnership with the City of Reedley and builds on the City’s ongoing efforts to (1) determine the feasibility of expanding its existing multi-use trail corridor, the Reedley Parkway, and (2) successively develop the Reedley Parkway Master Plan. The aim of the prefeasibility study is to serve as a preliminary planning step that informs the City’s future analysis and planning efforts. To meet these objectives, this project consisted of a mixed-methods approach including advisory meetings, fieldwork, GIS and map analysis, content analysis, and interviews. Specifically, this report identifies and summarizes existing conditions for trail development in Reedley; a planning and decision-making framework for trail development; assessment and analysis of the potential Parkway expansion; and, Reedley-specific implementation recommendations and next steps
