Overview

The California Tahoe Conservancy is planning a project at Van Sickle Bi-State Park (Park) to improve visitor safety, connect the Park to nearby neighborhoods and state line with new shared-use trails, expand amenities, and improve access for all. Building on a 2019 vision plan for the park, the Conservancy is exploring options to improve the Park entrance, trails, and facilities. The Conservancy also proposes to build a portion of the Dennis T. Machida Greenway (Van Sickle Connector), to connect Chonokis Road to the Van Sickle Shared-Use Trail.
