Cyclists and pedestrians will be happy to hear that the Cherrywood Neighborhood Bikeways project, which is designed to connect the All Ages and Abilities Bicycle Network between Interstate 35, Airport Boulevard and East 38th ½ Street, is moving forward. According to Austin Transportation, the design includes “new pavement markings (‘sharrows’) to alert people driving to expect people bicycling, improvements for crossing I-35 near Wilshire Boulevard by foot and by bike, new wayfinding signs to guide people bicycling, speed reduction devices, and new rain gardens.” The project will begin this spring and will be completed in phases.
