Jordan Creek Greenway

We currently have over three miles of Jordan Creek Greenway – comprised of traditional trail, side paths, and a few short sections of on-street bike/sidewalk. Beginning at Jefferson Avenue, there are over two miles of trail that heads east through Jordan Valley Park, under Chestnut Expressway, passes the west side of OTC campus, through Silver Springs Park, and on to Smith park. There is a half-mile segment of trail in West Meadows with a trailhead off of Fort Street. There is a 1.5-mile section of trail that begins at Mt. Vernon Street, heads southwest and crosses under the new Grand Street bridge, past Cruse Dog Park, and ends at Ewing Park. Ewing Park is where the Jordan Creek and Fassnight Creek Greenways will merge with Wilson’s Creek Greenway!

NEW: The current gap in this key downtown corridor is between Jefferson Avenue on the east and Mt. Vernon Street on the west. We have several projects in partnership with The City of Springfield that will help close the gap over the next several years.

Jordan Creek Greenway connects through the heart of our Queen City – connecting parks, businesses, colleges, neighborhoods, and people to each other and to our beautiful outdoors.
