Document Description
The County of San Diego is proposing to implement a Trails and Habitat Enhancement Project (Proposed Project) in the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park. The proposed project is intended to refine and permit a network of multi-use recreational trails, which will facilitate recreational access and allow for the rehabilitation of degraded natural habitats within the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park. The proposed project includes the following specific components:
-Creation of a formally designated multi-use recreational trail network;
-Habitat creation and restoration of approximately 60-acres including wetland, riparian and upland habitats;
-Installation of a steel-truss recreational bridge crossing over the Tijuana River;
-Interpretive/directional signage and benches at key areas;
-Bird observation blinds and trail fencing;
-Eastern trailhead staging area consisting of 2-acres along Dairy Mart Road; and,
-Creation of a park management plan to guide the long-term development and management of uses and resources within the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park.
Currently, there is no formal or permitted recreational trail network through the California Environmental Quality Act in the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park (TRVRP). The proposed project would utilize selected portions of existing dirt roads and pathways and includes realignments, enhancements and closures where haphazard and unplanned development of trails has resulted in habitat degradation, deterioration of the quality of natural resources, and declining recreational user experience in the TRVRP. Minimal new trails and trail linkages would be developed as part of the proposed project.
