Espada Park

The restroom at Espada Park will be temporarily closed due to a water leak. Our team is working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding!

Mission Reach Area Maintenance

October 21, 2025
When: Beginning October 20, 2025 through Spring 2026 What: Crews will be performing stem-density removal and related vegetation maintenance along sections of the Mission Reach to help manage flood risk and protect surrounding infrastructure. Some trails or segments may be closed temporarily while work is underway. Why: Removing excess stems that naturally establish along the river helps maintain stormwater conveyance, reduces flood risk, and protects public infrastructure while allowing grassland and native vegetation to recover and thrive. What to expect:
  • Limited trail closures and intermittent work zones.
  • Crews and equipment working near the riverbanks during daytime hours.
  • Parking areas remain open, but visitors may see signage and temporary barriers.
Questions? Call the San Antonio River Authority at (210) 227-1373 or visit https://www.sariverauthority.org/services/river-health/ecosystems/. Thank you for your patience while we keep the Mission Reach safe, clean, and enjoyable. Stem Density Map
