AVILA BEACH - The San Luis Obispo County Public Works Department will begin maintenance work along the Bob Jones Bike Trail, a popular recreation trail in the Avila Beach area.


The repair work will temporarily close a portion of the Bob Jones Trail for a one-week period beginning Monday, January 6th through Friday, January 10th. The closure will occur between Ontario Road and Blue Heron Drive and is necessary to complete essential maintenance work to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all trail users.

Please refer to the map for exact location.

The planned repairs include restoring the pathway shoulders, clearing out accumulated sediment from drainage pipes, and replacing one drainage pipe that is damaged. These enhancements will improve the overall quality of the trail and prolong its usability for years to come.

The County of San Luis Obispo appreciates everyone’s patience and understanding as this important maintenance work is completed. The goal is to minimize disruption to users while ensuring the trail remains a safe and enjoyable asset for residents and visitors.

Signage will be posted ahead of and during the closure at key access points to notify trail users of the closure. Updates on the status of the project will be posted on the County of
San Luis Obispo Parks and Recreation website noted below and social media outlets.
