Trinity Forest Spine Trail - North & South Phase

The first phase of the Trinity Forest Spine Trail is complete, connecting the Santa Fe Trail just north of Tenison Park Golf Course in East Dallas to Samuell Boulevard, just north of I-30. With amenities like Creekside Mountain Bike Park and beautiful views of White Rock Creek, trail users pass under a historic railroad trestle just south of the White Rock Lake Spillway.

The Trinity Forest Spine Trail serves portions of Dallas that have historically been left out of trail and park projects. When complete, the trail will stretch nine miles, with the final two miles located in the south phase. Construction on the south phase is under way, with a one-mile elevated trail alongside US-175 kicking it off to ensure neighbors in historically underserved Southern Dallas gain access to safer and continuous trail experiences, including a parkland corridor. Coupled with the newly constructed Lake June Road bridge, the elevated pathway will feature bike lanes, wide sidewalks and heightened connectivity within the community. The south phase of the Trinity Forest Spine Trail was awarded a $12M RAISE Grant, securing an additional $18M from public partners TxDOT, the City of Dallas, and Dallas County. The new total investment for this phase of the project is now $30M.

The Trinity Forest Spine Trail, along with the revamped Lake June Road bridge, seamlessly integrates with existing trails such as the AT&T Trail and Trinity Forest Trail, building a network of pathways that link Pleasant Grove to key destinations like the Lake June DART Station and eventually White Rock Lake.

The Trinity Forest Spine Trail is being designed by Halff Associates.
