Current Planning Projects:

Central Greenway Regional Trail - Lake Elmo Segment

The Lake Elmo Segment of the future Central Greenway Regional trail will extend from I-94 on the south to Highway 36 on the north. Click here to view a map of the corridor.

The proposed trail fills a gap in the regional trail network and is identified as a regional trail search corridor. When completed, the trail corridor will provide users with an off-road, independent trail alignment connecting to Lake Elmo Park Reserve and other local and regional destinations.

Through the planning process, Washington County has drafted up a preferred alignment and master plan.
