The current proposed route will follow 8th Ave Ct S from 129th St S to Spanaway Regional Park. The proposed trail will connect the following schools and parks:

• Washington High School
• Keithley Middle School
• Gates Alternative High School
• Brookdale Elementary School
• Pacific Lutheran University (PLU)
• Parkland Prairie
• Gonyea Playfield
• Spanaway Regional Park (Sprinker Recreation Center, Bresemann Forest and Spanaway Park)

Whether you walk, ride or roll to get around, our goal is to give you a safe way to get to schools and parks in Parkland. Through a combination of the following options, the Parkland Trail will offer improved safety, visibility and accessibility for people of all ages:

• Shared use paths: Wide, multi-use paths that are often separated from the street.
• Sidewalks: Spaces along streets for people to walk or bike.
• Bike lanes: Separate lanes on existing roads to provide dedicated space bikes.
• Shared roads or greenways: Neighborhood streets shared by people and cars that are built with traffic calming tools, like speed bumps and signage.

Your feedback will help us refine the proposed route and identify key design and safety features. Based on this input, three possible design concepts for the trail will be shared in early 2020. With additional community feedback, we will then begin early design work on a preferred trail concept and consider funding opportunities to complete project design and construction. We'll report out on the preferred concept and how we used community feedback in Spring 2020.
