The initial construction phase of the South Tahoe Greenway Shared Use Trail (Greenway), Phase 1a, extends 0.42 miles between Herbert Avenue and Glenwood Way in the heart of the Bijou neighborhood in South Lake Tahoe. Preliminary planning refinements began in 2012 and initial construction occurred in 2015. In 2017 additional project drainage infrastructure was constructed. The next implementation phase of the Greenway, Phases 1b&2, will extend the trail connection south to the Sierra Tract and is described as a separate EIP project.
