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.
