Shared Use Path along Pine Street

Great news:  Burlington Public Works has told us that they will be able to include a shared-use path along the west side of Pine Street from the DPW building all the way to Kilburn Street (by Curtis Lumber)!  The path will be 8 to 10 feet wide for its entire length, and they're working on making it a consistent 10 feet.  It will also be separated from the street by at least a 3 foot wide greenbelt.  This will give cyclists who are not comfortable riding on Pine Street a separated path all the way from Curtis Lumber to Queen City Park Road.

Thanks to Carol Weston, the DPW engineer in charge of the project, and Nicole Losch, DPW's bike-ped planner, for their hard work on this project.  They are operating within some pretty tight constraints, and it took some real creativity and dedication to make this happen.  Send them a quick note of thanks at cweston@ci.burlington.vt.us and at nlosch@ci.burlington.vt.us.  And stay tuned!  We'll post an update with design details as soon as they are available.
