Confluence is a landscape architecture, planning and urban-design firm based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The 100-mile track is a natural, multi-use trail designed to give a unique mountain biking experience.
Cyclists of Gitchee Gumee Shores (COGGS), an influential not-for-profit biking group, helped build and maintain the track. However, they are relying on community engagement to assist with the completion, maintenance, and management of the Duluth Traverse Trail.
Challenges
Currently, the Duluth Traverse Trail has been completed in segments. To complete the project, the City created a master plan to fund and connect the trail segments together to create one continuous trail.
