A Big Trail Win for Seattle
Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan and the Seattle City Council have given all the funding necessary to make the Georgetown-to-South Park Trail a reality.
Seattle's Georgetown-to-South Park Trail is fully funded through construction, thanks to the city's 2021 budget, reports Doug Trumm.
"The Georgetown-to-South Park Trail has long been a priority for Duwamish Valley advocates and bike and pedestrian activists citywide. The trail fills a big hole in the city’s network of safe biking and pedestrian facilities," according to Trumm.
There are still some planning choices to be made, like a preferred route, but once complete, people on bikes and pedestrians will have another, key option for crossing the Duwamish River.
