The Claremore Lake Trail is a 2.1
mile segment of the overall
Claremore Citywide Trail system and
is one of the highest priority trail
segments outlined in the 2001 City
of Claremore Trails Master Plan. The
10' wide concrete trail follows the
west shore of Claremore Lake. The
purpose of this trail is to provide
an effective and safe bike and
pedestrian connection around
Claremore Lake and through central
Claremore to Rogers State
University. Along its course, the
trail will connect several parks,
schools, and other public
facilities. Phase I of the Claremore
Citywide Trail is composed of two of
the highest priority trail segments
as outlined in the 2001 City of
Claremore Trails Master Plan.
The entire length of this trail
will be within the 112 acre
Claremore Lake Park, a major
destination which includes several
fishing piers, an indoor fishing
facility, two pavilions, a
playground, and numerous picnic
areas. The project also includes a
111' pre-manufactured bow truss
bridge.
The Blue Starr Drive Linkage is
the east/west spine included in
Phase I of the Claremore Citywide
Trail. This linkage is a 2.9 mile
"share the road" on-street
bikeway along Blue Starr Drive. Blue
Starr Drive is a critical linkage
through Claremore because it is the
only suitable east/west corridor,
which begins east of town at
Claremore Lake and extends west to
Rogers State University. It provides
6,170 residents living within .5
miles of the trail access to the
Central Business District and other
key destinations.
