Trail Construction and Special Facilities

Trail development sometimes encounters unfamiliar problems.  These pages document solutions to some of those problems.

• Stairs
• Signage for sharing multi-use paths
• Bicycle exceptions, such as counter-flow (contraflow) on one-way streets
• Bikes on trains
• Bicycle storage
• Underpasses and tunnels
• Bicycle ferries
• Access to airports, trails near airports
• Trail details in Washington DC area: trail beside I66, boardwalk along Potomac, trail past airport landing lights

Trail projects in western Pennsylvania

• Frick Park: Commercial St Crossing
• Montour Trail: Potential campsites
• Potential connection between North Side (Chateau St) Trail and Montour Trail via McKees Rocks

I've tried to keep the sizes of these image reasonable for web browsing.  I have higher-resolution versions -- if you want to see more detail, let me know.
