Completed in 2003, this $13M project was jointly funded by the City of San Antonio and Bexar County. Project design and construction was overseen by SARA to stabilize and repair both the river channel walls and the high bank retaining walls, many dating back to the 1940’s era Hugman era River Walk. Additionally, historic sidewalks, stairs, and hardscape were repaired or replaced. New sidewalks were added on the west bank and the east bank was made fully ADA accessible including a new access point and a pocket park at Convent and Augusta Street.
Bridge Installation
Due to bridge installation occurring along the river, there will be a temporary pause in pedestrian traffic. Once the bridge is set down and the rigging removed, the trail will once again be opened. Sorry for the inconvenience.
