Work begins this summer on Campion Trail Phase 1B, which runs along Frazier Dam between Irving and Dallas. The 1.8-mile segment of Campion Trail is expected to be complete in fall 2026.


Commencement of Phase 1B brings the Campion Trail project one step closer to completion. Work includes the construction of two bridges, two low-water crossings and two boardwalks in addition to paving the 12-foot-wide concrete trail segment. This portion of Campion Trail also includes a dam outlook and rest area at Frazier Dam, and new canoe launches will be built north and south of the dam.


Campion Trail Phase 1B is estimated to cost $4.2 million and is funded through the Park Improvement Bond Fund. Phase 2, the final phase of the project, is anticipated to begin in 2026 with construction ending in late 2027.


Campion Trail is a 22-mile master-planned greenbelt located along the Elm and West Forks of the Trinity River. The trail is part of the regional DFW Discovery Trail, a 66-mile trail system connecting the cities of Fort Worth, Arlington, Grand Prairie, Dallas and Irving. Additionally, Campion Trail has connections to trail systems in the cities of Coppell and Farmers Branch.


The Campion Trail project has been a decades-long investment in community recreation and regional connectivity. For more information on the city’s trail system, visit IrvingTX.gov/Trails.
