Well that makes sense.  It was in definite need of a repave!

It's not ideal, but Wright to E. Wash doesn't take you too far out of the way.  The streets are busy, but both have official bike lanes, and the rebuild made it a bit easier to get across Aberg on E. Wash.

Thanks!

City is completely repaving the Starkweather Creek path, from Shoko Drive to Anderson St.  Construction should begin today and the contractor (Tri-County Paving) has 30 calendar days to complete and reopen the path.  The bridge over Aberg is  closed because the path on the north side will be under construction in both directions. The contractor has posted a detour for this using E Washington.  Unfortunately there does not seem to be a very good alternative route  to this important path.  We are sorry for the inconvenience and hoe to get this path back in service, better than ever.

 

Any questions can be directed to me in City Engineering or Mark Winter in Traffic Engineering

I noticed the detour signs too when I was headed that way today, and chose to ignore the detour signs and check it out for myself.  I asked a bicyclist coming the other way what was up with the bridge, and he said he had no idea--it was perfectly usable.  Can someone with the city explain what's up with the bridge over Aberg?

I was over by MATC today and noticed that the Starkweather Creek path was closed, and a detour posted. Anybody know the scoop on what and how long?  I'd hate to lose it for ling since it's my main commuter route, and took over as my exercise route this summer with Woodland closed down

Thanks
