Thank you to everyone who participated in planning for the Baltic Creek Greenway in 2022 and 2023. We have made new progress in the northernmost section of the greenway, nestled between the Dardenne Greenway and Hwy 364/94 in St. Peters and Cottleville.

Right now, we are working to understand the feasibility of a few alignments. This means that our designers are examining current site conditions, utilities, flooding, and more to determine where a greenway can safely be built and maintained. While we work to understand the feasibility of the possible alignments, we’d also like to get community feedback on the options.

The map below shows the updated alignments.

Question Title

Image
Alignment A connects to the Dardenne Greenway at the north end of the map and proceeds along the east side of the commercial area separated from Mid Rivers Mall Drive. South of Dye Club Drive, available space for the Alignment A path is limited. Options considered include a pedestrian bridge or a boardwalk until the path moves south of the new apartments. At Central School Road the path would connect to St. Peters' future multi-use path.

Alignment B option locates the path adjacent to Mid Rivers Mall Drive within the road right-of-way. The alignment connects to the Dardenne Greenway at the north end of the map and proceeds along the west side of Mid Rivers Mall Drive; finally connecting to St. Peters' future multi-use path.

Alignment C option illustrates three possible connections at the north end of the map. Only ONE option would be chosen to complete the alignment. The options being considered include:
1) Connecting to the Dardenne Greenway using the existing Kountz Trail (dashed line).
2) Connecting to the Dardenne Greenway at the north end of the map and proceeding south along the west side of Mid Rivers Mall Drive until reaching the NORTH side of Cottleville Farm & Home (Refer to path labeled C2).
3) Connecting to the Dardenne Greenway at the north end of the map and proceeding south along the west side of Mid Rivers Mall Drive until reaching the SOUTH side of Cottleville Farm & Home Refer to path labeled C1).
The greenway would then proceed south behind the Schnucks commercial area and connect to St. Peters' future multi-use path using Hwy N.

Community Goals
