This 3.5-mile bikeway runs along the western side of downtown Grand Rapids, connecting two major trails and providing safe cycling access to businesses, residential areas, and Grand Valley State University. The Greater Grand Rapids Bicycle Coalition, CycleSafe, and Freewheeler Bike Shop donated cash, equipment, and assistance to this project, and our $5,000 grant helped fund engineering and design costs.
