Boggy Creek Trail is located in East Austin. This trail is part of the Red Line and the Eastlink trail systems, and provides key connections to downtown, parks, transit, and major attractions.
Austin's First Dual-track Trail Now Complete!
In partnership with the Parks and Recreation Department, Austin Public Works and Austin Transportation construction of the new dual-track trail from Rosewood Avenue to E. 12th Street is now complete! The new dual-track connects to the existing upper portion of Boggy Creek Trail, located between E 12th St. and the Capital Metro MLK Jr. Station.
Project Limits
Boggy Creek Trail System Limits & Overview
The Boggy Creek Urban Trail extends from the Capital Metro MLK Jr. Station to Rosewood Ave; south of Rosewood Ave. the trail is composed of crushed granite.
Capital Metro MLK Jr. Station to E. 12th Street: an urban trail provides a comfortable space for people walking or biking to enjoy. This portion of Boggy Creek Trail opened to the public in July 2019.
E. 12th Street to Rosewood Ave: the urban trail becomes a dual-track trail, which allows for separation of people walking from people biking and using other wheeled devices. This portion of the trail opened to the public in Feb. 2021.
The trail is part of two larger planned trail systems: the EastLink Trail and Red Line Trail. It is also part of Austin Transportation's All Ages and Abilities Bicycle Network.
Project Background
The Boggy Creek Trail is among several high priority

the next two decades.
