Rider Alert: Route Impacts

The Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District is undertaking a large scale project to reduce the sewer overflows into Lake Erie and other areas.  Why does this matter to cyclists?  Because there will be short term and long term impacts to where you ride while the project is underway.  If you ride in this area, let’s get you up to speed.

Temporary Reroute & Interim Path:

For approximately 3 weeks beginning July 10, there will be a signed reroute for the Lake to Lakes Trail in Ambler Park.  The reroute will take you onto Stokes Blvd, Cedar Ave, and MLK Jr Drive.  During this 3 week period a temporary path will be under construction, one that will skirt the edge of the park and be used for nearly 4 years.

This is a major underground project that will take years to complete, but we were assured that the regular bike path will return better than ever – including lighting and other amenities to improve the rider experience.  We thank the NEORSD for reaching out and providing this information to Bike Cleveland and riders throughout Northeast Ohio.
