Project Location & History
Meadow Bridge is a 25.34 acre undeveloped parcel located on the south side of Bozeman. The property is
bounded by Commonwealth St to the northeast, Parkway Ave and Last Loop Dr to the west, S 23rd Ave to the
east and Blackwood Rd to the south. The land that makes up the Meadow Bridge Subdivision has primarily
been vacant open space with a wetland running through the center. The existing open space and native
wetland create an opportunity for valuable passive recreational space - a priority for the planned development.
These trails will better connect the growing trail system on the south side of Bozeman and the adjacent
neighborhoods. The site's location between existing subdivisions also creates the potential for logical
expansion for single family homes in South Bozeman.

Project Scope
The Meadow Bridge Park Master Plan is comprised of two main components: Dedicated Park Areas and
Common Open Space Areas (with Public Access Easements). The primary purpose of this document is to
describe the initial level of development and maintenance of the parks, trails, and common open spaces. The
second objective is to show a concept for future recreation amenities that could complement those installed
by the developer.
Guiding Ideas:
• Promote pedestrian circulation and walkability by providing connections between residential
neighborhoods and park/open space areas
• Provide areas for passive and active recreation
• Minimize hard or impervious surface
• Maintain and preserve natural areas
• Allow the surrounding land uses, needs of existing users, and needs of potential users to
inform all park design and programming
