Northwest Passage to Memorial Park

Dogs Leashed

This trail provides access to Memorial Park from Metro's Northwest Transit Center (NWTC) and from neighborhoods to the north in Spring Branch.

Beginning at the NWTC, there is a wide sidepath west to a pedestrian/bicycle bridge over I-10. The wide concrete sidepath then runs south along the east side of N. Post Oak to pass under the I-610 Loop at Memorial Drive.

Beginning at the corner of Memorial Drive and the I-610 Loop Svc. Road (East), the path becomes a crushed-rock trail running along the north side of Memorial Drive. About 400 feet before the railroad bridge, the trail changes to a concrete surface. From this point there are numerous connections into and through Memorial Park.

The long-term development plan for Memorial Park envisions re-routing Memorial Drive in the crushed-rock segment. This could happen in the late 2020's or early 2030's.
