Q8: Of the nine considerations listed above, please identify which ones you feel are the THREE
MOST IMPORTANT considerations for this study area (please mark only three):
Connectivity, Constructability, Safety
Q9: Are there additional issues and considerations that should be considered for this route?
Bicyclists using this transportation corridor face a daunting challenge. Shoulder bike lanes offer
bicyclist an opportunity to travel this stretch somewhat safely. A shared use path offers the
potential for serious conflict. Large groups of bicyclists use The Scenic Byway, River Road
regularly. If these groups of riders are forced to a shared-use path, encounters with families with
strollers and pets could be problematic.
Q10: What do you feel is the most important opportunity or challenge for this section of the
Louisville Loop route?
Safety of pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists.
Q11: Please provide any additional information you would like to share with Louisville Metro
Parks and the project planning team.
The shoulder bike lanes work well on Southwestern Parkway and Campground road. I feel they
would work just as well on River Road.
