Campus Drive Trail Addition

Bruce Thompson — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 01:07:59 +0000

A new section of bike trail stretches between the UW campus and Highland Ave. The trail starts just west of Babcock Hall (a great place for ice cream or sandwiches) and roughly runs north of and parallel to the railroad tracks.

Pheasant Branch Trail in Middleton Paved

Bruce Thompson — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 03:40:11 +0000

Middleton’s Pheasant Branch Trail has recently been paved between Century Blvd on the east and Airport Rd on the west. The trails north of Century Blvd in the Pheasant Branch Conservancy are still mostly unpaved but in good condition for road bikes. West of highway 12, the northern-most branch of the trail becomes unpaved after crossing under Airport Rd, ending at Capital View Rd.

The trail crosses the stream a number of times. The first time I rode the trail, one had to ford the stream at the crossings. Then bridges were added, but adventurous riders can still try the fords.

The first section connects the Capitol City Trail at Marquette St. with the recently-constructed bicycle bridge over Washington Avenue. The second section includes a bridge over highway 30 to connect two the trail shown on the map north of Washington Avenue with another existing trail to the north.

A new bicycle trail along highway 151 helps link Madison and Sun Prairie. This trail would appear in the upper right-hand corner of the Madison map. Traveling from Madison the trail starts where High Crossing Blvd ends at American Pkwy and follows the southeast side highway 151 to connect with O’Keefe Ave which leads into Sun Prairie.

Maps are dynamic. Bike routes change, new trails get built and old ones extended. Some trails get shut down, temporarily, because of nearby construction or because the trail itself needs an overhaul. Well post the updates here, then provide a permanent, one-top page for all of the posts within each of the metro areas covered.

Map Update Range Trail Road

Doug Shidell — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 22:02:15 +0000

The 2nd edition of the Madison and Dane County Bike Map contains an error north of Paoli. The route identified as County Road PB, then Range Trail Rd, going north from Paoli is Range Trail Rd the entire distance. The heavier black line to the east of Range Trail is County Rd PB.

Badger State Tral

It didn’t take long for alert readers to notice that I forgot to include the finished part of the Badger State Trail between Belleville and Purcell Rd. No excuses for that oversight. In the process of converting the map into GIS format I overlooked the missing trail. My apologies. Click here for a free pdf file showing the proper location of the trail on the map.
