Why This Vote Matters

The city council unanimously approved plans to extend the Richmond Greenway bike path to connect with the San Francisco Bay Trail along West Ohio Avenue. The new route would run from South 2nd Street to Garrard Boulevard, creating a continuous path for cyclists and pedestrians between the existing greenway and the bay trail. City staff will now seek grants and other funding sources to pay for construction of this project. This continues the council's strong pattern of support for infrastructure improvements.
