Bridge over Barnett Grand Opening



Today was the grand opening of the bridge spanning Barnett Road in Medford, Oregon, and linking the Bear Creek Greenway so that it is virtually nonstop cycling from Central Point to Ashland. The only traffic one will encounter on the bike path is at Suncrest Road in Talent, but few cars are on this road.




Mayor Gary Wheeler spoke at the amphitheater nearby the bridge site.



Medford councilman Al Densmore had a few words to say about the Greenway project.














The Greenway project was some forty years in the making.  There is still more to do.
