A little over a year ago, I wrote about the need for a good bicycle route from downtown to the airport. I was particularly interested to know if there were plans to connect the nice (but very short) separated bike / pedestrian path on Voorde Dr with a route all the way to downtown.
Although I was aware that South Bend was in the process of striping new lanes on the city’s west side, it didn’t occur to me until this weekend that there is now a great route all the way from downtown to the airport! In my humble opinion, the city hit a home run with this route selection: it is safe, pleasant and hits several major destinations.
