Ohio River Vally Northeast (ORVNE) Segment of the Louisville Loop: Survey Responses
Q10: What do you feel is the most important opportunity or challenge for this section of the
Louisville Loop route?
Ensuring a safe route protected from traffic and avoiding car crossovers of the path as much as
possible. This route will be very popular with cyclist, both commuters & recreational cyclists.
Therefore, I'd love to see separation of cyclists from joggers/walkers is some way to ensure
safety for all users.
Q11: Please provide any additional information you would like to share with Louisville Metro
Parks and the project planning team.
I hope there will be research done on making multi use psths more safe. The Big 4 is a fiasco
for cyclists as the pedestrians pay NO attention & it makes it dangerous for all. The wide paths
in Beckley Creek/Parklands work pretty well. But even the wide paths in Waterfront Park are an
issue because people don't realize it's a multi use area.
