Trail Closure at Colby Park for ICON Water Trail – Walnut Creek Access Construction

City News Posted on February 16, 2026

Trail closed near Walnut Creek with marked detour route through park and streets


Construction is beginning on the City’s ICON Water Trail – Walnut Creek Access project, resulting in intermittent trail closures at Colby Park. The closures are necessary to safely complete improvements that will enhance public access to Walnut Creek and expand recreational opportunities for the community.

What to Expect

A section of the trail near the construction area will be closed for the duration of the project. Trail users will be directed to follow a marked detour route around the work zone.

Detour Route

During construction, pedestrians and cyclists should:

  • Travel east along the posted detour

  • Proceed north around the Colby Park parking lot

  • Reconnect with the main trail north of the construction area

Clearly marked signs will be in place to guide trail users safely around the closure.

Thank You for Your Patience

The City appreciates the community’s cooperation as work begins on this important enhancement to the ICON Water Trail system. These improvements will provide expanded access to Walnut Creek and support outdoor recreation in Windsor Heights.

Updates will be shared as the project progresses.
