The Southwest Fresno Trail will install a Class I Trail along the Fanning Ditch Alignment, from West to Thorne. The project will plant 102 trees and add landscaping to increase the urban tree canopy and add trail and street lighting facilities. The City of Fresno Department of Public Works will provide long-term operations and maintenance of the trail and improvements.

USGBC Central California and Urban Diversity Design worked on outreach to the community and community stakeholders to inform about the project and incorporate community input into the design led by the City of Fresno and Sherwood Design.
