Have you been looking for a new place to ride your bike? Are you on the hunt for another way to enjoy the outdoors? Right here in Silverlandia, the Taylor Yard Bikeway\/Pedestrian Bridge has finally opened. It took a bit longer than many had thought, but it\u2019s finally here. Moreover, it\u2019s worth the wait.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n At 400 feet long and 27 feet wide, this is quite a bridge indeed. If you look at it and feel like you\u2019re looking at a classic railway, there\u2019s a reason for that: it was designed to look that way. Crossing the Los Angeles River, is a great way to get outside and get some exercise. Indeed, you\u2019re not allowed on the bridge in a motor vehicle, so it\u2019s perfect for an outdoor excursion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The idea behind the bridge is that it connects Taylor Yard with Elysian Valley. You may have heard of this before it was completed, as it was originally adopted in 2007 and yet construction didn\u2019t really start until 11 years later. But, today\u2019s it\u2019s here to be enjoyed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As it\u2019s so high up, there\u2019s never any real danger that it could potentially be overtaken by the LA River. At 400 feet long, you may say \u201cwell, that doesn\u2019t seem long enough for lengthy exercise.\u201d While that may be true for some, it\u2019s actually supposed to be part of a much longer path.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When completed, it\u2019s to connect the soon to be done Taylor Yard G2 River Park with the already existing Los Angeles River Bike Path. That could take it for 51 miles, from Long Beach all the way up to Canoga Park.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
