A year after ODOT re-paved East Main St. from downtown Lancaster to the US 22/Rt. 37 split, markings have been painted on the asphalt designating the shoulders as bike lanes on both sides of the street.
The new route begins at the soccer fields next to the former Big Bear Plaza and continues to the eastern Lancaster city limits. A suggested route from the bridge at Mary Burnham Park (near the E. Main Kroger store) to the new bike lanes can be found on the Maps page.
Thanks to Lancaster Parks and Recreation, Mayor Dave Smith, the Lancaster City Engineering Department, and FHTA President Eric Oberg for keeping on this project and making it a reality. The new bike lanes add about 3-1/2 miles to the Lancaster Heritage Trail system.
