Trails with City Road Projects |
|
|
As the City of Billings is repaving and
constructing new road projects, the city Public
Works Department has made a conscientious effort
to provide on and off-street bike lanes and
trails. On Lake Hills Drive and Pemberton
Lane in the Heights, the road work includes an
on-street bike lane. There are also bike
lanes on Rimrock Road from Virginia Lane to 17th
Street West, Senators Blvd. and So. 25th Street.
Several road projects have also included a trail
separated from vehicular traffic along the
roadway. These projects include the
Zimmerman Trail extension (previously called the
Arlene Corridor) from Poly Drive down to
Broadwater Avenue, South Billings Boulevard from
the Frontage Road to King Ave. East and Alkali
Creek Road. Other future road projects
that have the potential for a separate trail
along the roadway are Rimrock Road from Shiloh
Road to 54th Street West, Shiloh Road and
Zimmerman Trail from Hwy. 3 to Rimrock Road.
As more bike lanes and trails are incorporated
into roadways, Billings will become a more bike
friendly community and hopefully a safer place
as well as providing connectivity for alternate
modes of transportation. |
