Project Overview

  • Segment A: Stella Olsen Park to Highway 99W at Meinecke Parkway
  • Segment B: Highway 99W to SW Edy Road
    • Deemed feasible; design phase pending.
  • Segment C: SW Edy Road to Roy Rogers Road
    • Deemed feasible; design phase pending.

The Cedar Creek Trail is comprised of three primary segments of the regional trail system that run off-street between Old Town, Stella Olsen Park, Highway 99W, SW Edy Road and SW Roy Rogers Road via the Cedar Creek greenway corridor. The trail segments that extend beyond these areas utilize existing on-street sidewalks and pathways to complete the regional trail system through the City. The Cedar Creek Trail comprises a good portion of the West Fork of the Ice Age Tonquin Regional Trail System.

The trail segments southeast of Old Town will be constructed as part of the SW Oregon St Improvements Project (between Langer Farms Parkway and the Murdock Road roundabout) and with development of the Tonquin Employment Area to ultimately connect with neighboring cities to the east and southeast.

The preferred alignments for the two trail segments north of Highway 99W can be reviewed under the Supporting Documents section below.

Additionally, the City is confirming via a separate study & design project, the location and approximate cost to build a cut-n-cover style tunnel under the Highway 99W. Current cost estimates predict this project will exceed $10 million. The highway undercrossing project is listed as a long-term, unfunded project in the CIP plan.

Highway 99W to SW Edy Road

Deemed feasible with the design phase pending, Segment B has been defined the preferred trail route within the corridor and determined the cost for construction of the trail.  No funding is available at this time for construction, however.

The Local Trail Advisory Committee (LTAC), comprised of Sherwood residents who live near the Cedar Creek corridor, evaluated the different options for the trail alignment. The LTAC reviewed the feedback from community members, the information provided by consultants, and spoke to their neighbors about the project.

At the last LTAC meeting, the Committee reached consensus on a preferred alignment for Segment B. The Parks Advisory Board approved the Committee’s recommended alignment. 

SW Edy Road to Roy Rogers Road

Deemed feasible with the design phase pending. More information on this segment will be added to this page as the project develops.
