Featured project: High Line Canal Trail Surface Enhancements in Four Square Mile  

Project Description: Arapahoe County Open Spaces, Denver Parks & Recreation, and the High Line Canal Conservancy are working in partnership to design an enhanced trail surface for the Canal in the Four Square Mile neighborhood between Quebec St. and Parker Rd. The project will upgrade the existing 8’ asphalt trail to a 12’ concrete trail with an adjacent 6’ crusher fines trail and meet ADA standards. Designs will be completed by the end of 2025.  

Public Engagement: A virtual public meeting will be held via Zoom on Tuesday, Sept. 9, from 5-6 p.m. to share an informational update on the trail enhancement project, followed by a 30-day public review period during which the public may submit any questions, comments and feedback to askopenspaces@arapahoegov.com.  

RSVP information for the Sept. 9 Zoom meeting will be posted on this project page mid-August. Please check back at www.arapahoeco.gov/hlc-improvements  

Project Location: Quebec St. to Parker Rd.  

Project Funding: Design and engineering is funded jointly by Arapahoe County Open Spaces and the High Line Canal Conservancy.
