The long awaited and much anticipated opening of Seattle’s Ship Canal Trail extension under the Ballard Bridge is Saturday, November 19, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony slated for 11am.
This extension fills a critical missing link in Seattle’s bicycle network. The trail offers a safer connection for bicyclists traveling between Magnolia/Interbay to Queen Anne and Fremont by bringing them under the Ballard Bridge and avoiding the gnarly cloverleaf interchange at bridge level. Check SDOT’s Ship Canal Trail Phase II for directions to the ribbon-cutting and more information on the project.
