Fwd: RE: BIKE: Shoal Creek Trail bridge at 29th St.!!! [WOO HOO!]

[Eric Anderson]

Shoal Creek Trail bikers:

This from COA Parks planner Butch Smith. Low-water pedestrian bridge at
29th St. (ADA -bike- compliant) and repaired trail will finally make Shoal
Creek Trail bikeable from 29th St. to 9th St.

Good news certainly..., now wondering if Whole Foods/ Schlosser
Development commitments might expedite eventually completing the lower
section of Shoal Creek Trail from 6th to West???
