Good Link Trail

Trail Grand Opening
We opened the Good Link Trail on March 1, 2008 with a bang! Check out pictures of the ceremony!

The Link Park is a linear park that connects Mike Lewis Park to C.P. Waggoner Park with paved trails, boardwalks, and a 270 foot long bridge spanning Johnson Creek. The Texas Department of Transportation is removing 10.3 acres of parkland from Waggoner Park for the construction of Highway 161, so in return, they have purchased 75 acres of land for the Good Link Park and have funded the entire project.
Trail map coming soon!

Project highlights:

  • 4.85 miles of trail
  • River overlook
  • 4 new park pavilions
  • 5 shade structures
  • More than 1,300 new trees
