[BikeLongmont] Bike path/trail closed between Sunset and Hover

[Peter Schow]

Just noticed today that the bike path/trail along the south side
of Lefthand Creek, between Sunset and Hover, is closed off due to
construction of the lot at the NW corner of Lefthand Creek and
Sunset Street.  This is in SW Longmont, in the Creekside-ish
developments (I forgot all of the names).

This, I believe, is the lot that was sold by the St. Vrain Valley
School District to raise some cash a few years ago.

If you still need to travel this route, there is a rougher jeep-like
trail on the north side of the creek that will still get you to Hover.
Fine for fat-tired bikes, anyway, during periods of dry weather.

Does anyone know what the plans are for the future of the path along
the south side of the creek, once this construction is complete?  Will
the creekside path that starts way back near the Rec Center be extended
all the way to Hover?   Does the city maintain the packed-gravel portion
of this path that is close to Hover? 

Thanks,

Peter Schow
