Description:
Bordering the east side of Jeffrey Road, the Jeffrey Open Space Trail is a recreation and open space corridor park that will span Irvine's entire north-south length. This rare community amenity will make it possible for residents (if they're so inclined and can muster the stamina) to bicycle, jog or walk, literally, from one end of the city to the other. As envisioned in concept, the trail will ultimately link up with trails leading deep into the vast preserved wildlands north and south of the city. Thus, a unique sage to sea outdoor experience will emerge.
The trail will feature a dual trail system: an 11-foot-wide paved trail for bicyclists, and a parallel five-foot-wide unpaved path for joggers and walkers. At numerous points, the trail will pass through cool wooded areas and open to small and large parks and grassy meadows. At these picturesque junctures, residents will be able to enjoy picnics, kite flying and other passive recreational activities.
