SLT Paths Back Open For Business

The South Lawrence Trafficway path between Sixth Street and Clinton Parkway are now open and better than ever. The reopened section has three additional entrances. Going south from Sixth Street, the first appears to the west of Langston Hughes elementary school. The second entrance is where 15th St. and the SLT intersect. Continuing on the pathway and not cutting off on 15th St., runners and bikers will find themselves going under the street through a very nice long tunnel - the reverberations are fantastic should one choose to sing while running or biking through the tunnel as I did this morning. The final turn off comes at an unmarked, yet wide and paved street about a quarter-mile to the south of the 15th St. exit. Users of the pathway will recall that the street used to be a gravel road. It now runs from the South Lawrence Trafficway to George Williams Way behind Corpus Christi church. I hope to go back and take pictures for people to see sometime soon. This morning I took a lovely 9 mile run incorporating most of what I just wrote about. The new and improved paths are well worth checking out.
