The City of Buena Park is seeking public input for a feasibility study to explore biking and pedestrian trail connectivity in the northwest part of the city.

“This project will serve as a great initiative in providing seamless connections of bike trails in Fullerton, the Buena Park Metrolink Station, existing and future segments of the OC Loop bike trail and destinations in between,” said Francisco Gutierrez, P.E., associate engineer with the City’s Department of Public Works and Engineering. “We’re looking forward to learning what the community wants from their biking and pedestrian facilities—we hope everyone takes a minute to visit our website and take the survey, or visit us at a community event.”

The City of Buena Park’s ultimate goal will be to build out one or more routes, based on community input and feasibility. The study is funded in part by a grant from the California Department of Transportation. Please see the list of upcoming workshops below and consider attending to give your input on biking and pedestrian trails in the City of Buena Park.
