Active Transportation Plan
Trails and Active Transportation Infrastructure
Trails serve as linear parks, providing connections throughout the Farmers Branch community. In 2015, the City adopted a Citywide Trails Master Plan to provide guidance on installing trails. As land available for trails has decreased, the City adopted the Active Transportation Plan in 2025 to replace the Citywide Trails Master Plan.
The Active Transportation Plan takes a broader approach, providing guidance on trails and other infrastructure to ensure safety and connectivity for pedestrians and cyclists. This vision will help link neighborhoods, schools, parks and key destinations within the City and to the surrounding area.
