I just received an update on the Bodega Bay Trail from Norma Jellison who represents the Bodega Bay Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee and thought I'd post it here for you...
"What an incredible day we had Thursday for the dedication of the Cheney Creek Bridge and Trail, connecting Birdwalk on Rt 1 to Doran Park beaches thru the Doran Marsh, and thus the southern section of the Bodega Bay Path! It is also a section of the CA Coastal Trail.
If you have not yet seen the reconstructed path and the new bridge, do go check it out. Better yet, walk it!!
I accepted a Certificate of Appreciation - with photo of the bridge as background - on behalf of the Bodega Bay Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee. So we can all be proud to finally see something come of all our meetings and advocacy! I'm sure this gem will be much used and bring lots of appreciation for the beautiful southern end of our Bodega Bay - Sonoma County Coast.
BTW, sometime in January, Regional Parks will be looking for volunteers to help plant the new plants along the path. Hope to see some of you help with that effort to further enhance this section of the Bodega Bay Path!
Our Bodega Bay Path is now incorporated into the Countywide Bike/Ped Path Master Plan and a Programmatic EIR is underway for the BB Path. All of which will allow our Path to continue a forward march.
The next section to be constructed will be the northern section from Salmon Creek thru State Park lands to BB Community Center and then down thru the Dunes and old Rt 1 tree line to the Horse Trailer parking lot on Bayflat - there has been a bike lane around the Bay on Bayflat for many years - maybe we can get the path stripe repainted soon. This should be under construction in 2010. A boardwalk between the Tides and Lucas is also in the offing, hopefully not far behind the northern section construction."
