Oh, and this isn't political? Maybe should ask for the moderators to delete. LOL

I've ridden a loop utilizing the 520 trail, the Eastdside / Cross Kirkland Connector and the Sammamish River trail several times. With the current configuration to connect the 520 trail to the Eastside trail one needs to cross and ride Northup a bit and then 124th Avenue for a bit. This section has significant traffic and 124th is a bit potholed and has some rail lines to deal with. For an experienced urban assault rider it can be negotiated without too much trouble.
Not sure I follow this. When I've done this I stay on Northup until just past the usual left turn onto 24th and turn right on 120th, then right again onto the Eastlink trail. I'm glad to see a new connection put it, but 2.5 million is either a seriously gold plated design or a cash grab by a contractor... huh.gif
