October 1 Wavecrest Trail Extension Update

WEEK 9:
It’s official—the Coastal Trail is now fully connected through the Wavecrest Open Space! This is a milestone worth celebrating, and we’re so grateful to everyone who has been supporting and encouraging this project along the way. Out on the trail, people are already enjoying this new connection—hiking, biking, and walking their dogs along the fresh stretch of Coastal Trail.

In addition to this exciting achievement, the crew also carried out extensive restoration work on compacted casual trails and finished gravelling the existing road between the Smith Field Ballpark and the ravine crossing. Each of these steps helps ensure the trail is not only connected, but also resilient and ready to serve the community for years to come.

And in a special moment of celebration, our Wavecrest Trail Project Manager, Sara Polgar, took a well-deserved ride along the newly connected path to enjoy the fruits of her tireless work on this project.

WEEK 10:
Next up, the crew is stabilizing a large gully at the northwest end of the ravine where the north stairs will eventually be installed. For now, this repaired gully will also serve as the construction access route to the beach, making it possible to begin work on the south stairs—which must be built first.
