Lakes, recreation and wet-land nature areas will be connected by 4.5 miles ofpedestrian and 4.2 miles ofequestrian trails. The natural terrain of elevation changes will offer opportunities for a variety of cross country, cy-cling and running events. The trails system will also tie into the regional trails and the city of Tyler parks and trails mas-terplan,extendingpedestriantrails into downtown Tyler.

The natural terrain of the site is also used as a visual and sound buffer to adjacent residential areas.

The Master plan will offer three primary site access points forthepublic,oneforvendorandservicetraffic,andonefor emergency and egress service. Improvements to Hwy 31 and Patton Lane include the addition of accelerationanddecelerationlanes,thewideningofPattonLanetoafour-laneboulevardandthecoordinatedvisitor,vendorcir-culation and car stacking space at site access points mini-mizing traffic congestion.ThecornerofHighway31andPatton Lane will also be improved with turning lanes and trafficcontroldevices.
