Blohm Park Trail Improvements

The City of Gaithersburg is seeking proposals for construction of the Blohm Park Trail Improvement Project located at 18900 Watkins Mill Road in the northwestern corner of the City.

Blohm Park was dedicated in 2001 as a passive park with a natural surface trail system containing three wooden foot bridges over various stream tributaries. Amenities installed at that time included a brick circular walkway with seating areas leading to a covered wooden gazebo.

The Blohm Park Trail Improvement Project proposes to enhance the existing natural trail system by:

1. Establishing new natural surface loop trails;
2. Constructing a boardwalk wetland overlook structure and various seating areas;
3. Adding trail route markers and interpretive signage;
4. Constructing three fair weather crossings at the existing streams; and
5. Repairing and rehabilitating an existing foot bridge and the covered wooden gazebo and access deck as part of the project.
