Welcome to the
Central Valley Rails to Trails Foundation

The Central Valley Rails to Trails Foundation is dedicated to converting unused rail corridors throughout the Central Valley into trails for local communities to enjoy.

Our focus has been on 27.5 miles of the historic Central California Traction Rail Company (CCT) Rail Corridor. Over 100 years ago, the Corridor was built to transport passengers and freight between Sacramento and San Joaquin Counties. Now the Corridor can continue to serve as a link between the two counties through the creation of a rail trail for non-motorized recreation and alternative commuting.

CCT Rail Corridor Watch...
	Neighbors of the CCT Rail Corridor have noticed increased maintenance activities near Gerber and Bradshaw Roads, which could mean an expansion of the rail yard that currently stores hundreds of old rail cars. CVRTF will keep our supporters informed of any announcements made by the CCT or UP companies relating to the use of the Corridor.

TrailFest 2010 Coming Next September!
	The TrailFest 2010 organizing committee has chosen September 11th as the date for next year's TrailFest Taste of the Central Valley. This event has become a tradition as trail supporters from Sacramento and San Joaquin Counties gather to enjoy locally produced wine, beer and food products - and support the proposed trail!

High Speed Rail Authority Wants Your Opinion!
	The High Speed Rail Authority will hold open house events along the proposed high speed rail route from Merced to Sacramento. Meetings will be held in Stockton on January 20th and in Sacramento on January 27th. The CCT Corridor is listed as an attractive alternative, which would mean the end of our trail project. Please attend and speak up!
