Transforming Active Transportation in the Coachella Valley

Welcome to the CV Link, a revolutionary new concept in active and alternative transportation. Led by the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG), CV Link is an award-winning plan to provide access for pedestrians, bicyclists, and low-speed electric vehicles (including golf carts) on a dual pathway that largely parallels Highway 111, the busiest corridor in the valley. CV Link will enable healthier lifestyles, spur economic innovation, and make the Coachella Valley a more sustainable and appealing place to live, work and play for many generations of residents and visitors. It will bring national recognition to the Coachella Valley as a leader in environmentally friendly transportation. As bicycling and walking become more popular modes of transportation and recreation, CV Link will help to reduce deadly conflicts with motorists as well as provide a safer connection to schools, employment centers, public spaces and many valley attractions.

CV Link Open Segments

There are currently three segments of CV Link open to ride. The first segment of CV Link runs 2.3 miles between Ramon Road in Cathedral City and Vista Chino in Palm Springs. The second segment of CV Link open is aproximately 1 mile and runs adjacent to Demuth Park in Palm Springs. The third segment of CV Link open is on-street in the City of Palm Desert and consists of 3.5 miles running from the Bump n’ Grind trail head to the College of the Desert and ultimately ending at the wash near Deep Canyon Road. Other segments are being constructed as right-of-way is available. The approved project, as voted on by the CVAG Executive Committee in May 2017, does not include routes through Rancho Mirage or Indian Wells.

Can’t beat these views of those iconic windmills! CV Link is nearing completion in North Palm Springs with shade structures, light columns, and signage being installed now. We are also still working on the crossings at Indian and Vista Chino as well as the connector at Sunrise and in-channel pathway along Four Seasons so please hold off on riding this segment until fully complete at the end of Spring. #CVLink #comingsoon #PalmSprings ...

Question: Will it now go UNDER Ramon?

CV Link That looks fantastic! Thank you for all your hard work, trying to make the area accessible to other modes of transportation besides vehicles. I know I’ve voiced my concerns before, and was assured that safety crossings will be installed, but I still have a concern. If it’s just signage you’re putting up at Vista Chino and Indian Canyon, and not lighted/flashing pedestrian crossings, with how people drive around here, many running red lights, I fear the worst. People being seriously injured or killed. Vista Chino and Indian Canyon, and Gene Autry are notorious for speeding drivers. I don’t know if there is an opportunity to create underpasses at Vista Chino and Indian Canyon in the future? I’m not being pessimistic, I’m being cautious. Thank you! 🙏
