Airport Area Trails Reopen

Sections of the East Airport Access Road Trail that were closed in April have now reopened.

Parts of the trail, including small connecter trails, were closed as a precautionary measure during the early part of the spring freshet due to some erosion in the area.

The area is now dry and stable, allowing the trail to be reopened to users.

The City is continuing to monitor the escarpment area with the use of a slope scanner, regular engineering inspections, drone surveys and other measures to ensure water seepage and potential slides can be managed in a way that prioritizes public safety.
