Big Dollars Are Funding Big Upgrades to Redding Parks and Trails in 2022 and 2023.

In this episode, we talk with Travis Menne, Community Projects Manager with the City of Redding Community Services Department. Travis has been a key player in developing several successful grant applications with the State of California in the last few years. His work, along with others in the City, has secured close to $20 million dollars in grant funding for our local area parks and trails.  

We’ll talk with Travis about the exciting upgrades to Caldwell Park coming in 2022 and 2023 including the skatepark currently under construction, and other new amenities that will be coming soon like a new bike park, exercise area, shade structures and more. He also answers some questions about the Panorama park project off Lake Blvd. and when Redding residents can expect to see their brand new indoor recreation facility. 

Lastly, Travis looks back on 2021, which he refers to as “The year the city built bridges”. Some of these bridges replaced Carr Fire damage, but several more are new additions to upgrade trails and fish viewing areas. If you haven’t been out hiking, walking or biking around the city, there are a lot of new things to see
