Safety Notice: The Lower River Access areas at River Crossing, Helton Nature Park and Graytown Park have been closed due to rising waters and potential flood risk.
Camino Coahuilteca and Riverfront Parkway are closed due to rising water. Please use caution around the area.
We are expecting isolated showers and thunderstorms this weekend and into early next week. Heavy rains in short time spans may result in high water on roads and temporary closures at low water crossings.
Before heading out, residents are encouraged to check SARiverFlood.org or their local county flood website for real‑time roadway conditions:
These sites provide up‑to‑date information from flood‑monitoring sensors across the region. Real‑time updates are available 24/7 to help you stay informed as conditions change.
Please use caution when traveling and plan routes accordingly.
The east bank trail along San Pedro Creek will be temporarily closed between the upper trail at Cameron St. and the lower trail at two access points.

Staff have removed two large log jams just downstream of Helton Nature Park, keeping the southern portion of the SASPAMCO Paddling Trail temporarily closed. Staff are working to contact adjacent landowners to support a land-based removal solution.
NOTICE: HWY 59 Landing Site Closed
