Within the Reach 3 project area, the City of Fort Collins is exploring a variety of improvements to the Cache la Poudre River corridor along the north edge of downtown. Within the river channel, along its banks, and in the environs, the corridor has been largely neglected for many decades and today is in dire need of attention. A number of the improvements being explored will make the river more accessible to the general public. These include the development of a pedestrian bridge, parking lot with restrooms, park area, and changes to the trail system along the riverbanks. Also being considered is the possible creation of a water park within the river channel for kayaking.
