About the Trinity River Corridor Project:  

With a combined investment of over $2.5 billion from all interagency partners, public and private sources; the Trinity River Corridor Project is the largest and most complex public works and urban development project undertaken by the City of Dallas. This project is first and foremost a flood protection solution and one of the largest of its type in the nation. The project consists of five major components: flood protection, transportation, recreation, environment, and business development. The Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, designed by internationally known architect Santiago Calatrava, is under construction and will open in March 2012. A second Calatrava designed bridge, the Margaret McDermott Bridge (IH-30), is planned for a later date.  

The Trinity River Audubon Center (TRAC), a flagship location for the Texas Audubon Society, is a beautiful teaching and recreation site in the Great Trinity Forest. Catch all the action from Paraguay the week of October 24 at the center.
