Wright County Parks and Recreation Department is soliciting sealed proposals for the preliminary design of the 6.5 miles of Segment “B” of the Crow River Regional Trail. Located wholly within Wright County, Segment B follows the Crow River more closely than any other segment of the CRRT corridor - a critical component to the route evaluation. Beginning along the Bridge Street bridge which crosses the Crow River, Segment B connects to Rockford’s rural downtown and parkland adjacent to the Crow River. Further north, as the trail enters Rockford Township, the CRRT follows the Jansen Avenue SE/CR20 road right-of-way, offering sweeping vistas of the Crow River floodplain - in addition to providing access to several publicly owned Crow River properties. These Crow River properties offer trail users direct access to touch and feel the river. At the northern portion of segment B, the CRRT enters the rural community of Hanover, offering access to its commercial nodes and historic Crow River pedestrian bridge crossing.
