The Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration awarded the California Department of Transportation $444,030 under the Recreational Trails Program on September 9, 2022. The Formula Grant funding will support the 2022 Recreational Trail Project: Development Yuba Enhancement Phase 2. Specifically, approximately 1.5 miles of the Rattlesnake Trail segment with grades between 25-40% will be re-routed and replaced with around 2.5 miles of sustainable multiple use motorized single track trail featuring grades of 5-10%. In addition, around 2 miles of the Lavezzola Trail with grades between 25-40% will be re-routed and replaced with approximately 3 miles of sustainable multiple use motorized single track trail with grades of 5-10%. The purpose of the Recreational Trails Program (CFDA 20.219) is to provide funds to develop and maintain recreational trails and trail-related facilities for both nonmotorized and motorized recreational trail uses.
