Clarksburg Branch Line Trail Extension Project
West Sacramento
Description
A 6.5-mile rail-trail project (4.35 miles Class I path plus 2.05 miles of road right-of-way) connecting West Sacramento to Clarksburg; design is underway with shovel-ready plans expected in 2027 and best-case construction by end of 2030.
Impact summary
Would give cyclists and pedestrians a safe car-free route to Clarksburg, cut up to 8 miles of high-stress road riding, and boost Delta tourism and agritourism — but faces landowner opposition over farming impacts and potential litigation over environmental review.
