City of Fayetteville Trail Plans

The City of Fayetteville is actively acquiring land and building trails based on the adopted Fayetteville Alternative Transportation and Trails Master plan.  This Master Plan includes 129 miles of multi-use trail to be constructed within the next 30 years.  Several parts of the master plan correspond with the Heritage Trail Plan.

Currently the City of Fayetteville has 12 miles of multi-use trails completed and 8.5 miles of soft surfaced trails.    

To increase efficiency and rate of trail construction, a 9 member city crew dedicated to building trails began in late 2005.  This crew has constructed approximately 5 miles of trail including parts of Frisco Trail, Lake Fayetteville Trail, St. Paul Trail and Town Branch Trail.  For more information about these trails and future trail plans please visit www.accessfayetteville.org and look to Parks and Recreation.  

Future trail projects include:

  • Scull Creek Trail – 4.6 miles  (this is the highest priority trail)
  • Lake Fayetteville Trail – 2 miles
  • Clabber Creek Trail – 1 mile  

On September 12th 2006 voters approved 2.1 million in sales tax bonds for trail improvements to be used primarily for Scull Creek Trail.

The Parks & Recreation Division is actively seeking to acquire lands within sensitive areas to preserve, utilize as greenway corridors and enhance the natural stream watershed capabilities.  Through the Park Land Dedication Ordinance Fayetteville has acquired many trail corridors within the last several years.
