Background/Contributing Studies
The vision for the Louisville Loop evolved out of the planning process of Cornerstone 2020, the city’s comprehensive plan, developed in the 1990s. During the process,
three documents developed as sub-studies to the overall comprehensive plan incorporated the vision of the Louisville Loop. In recent years, there have been several stud-
ies and projects that have included the Loop as a core element, including significant corridor studies, design guidelines, and wayfinding plan. The following sections provide
a general overview of those documents that have served as a central resource and principle reference for the existing and future trail alignment for the Loop.
