Reviewed 2026-10-22. MDOT confirms walls separating this shared-use bridge facility from vehicle traffic. The regional trail partner publishes its bridge reference. State inventory combines bridge and Front Beach mileage; it is not assumed all that combined distance is uninterrupted separated path. Current bridge work and storm controls govern. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.

Map and Directions

Use the named public start and its posted parking signs. The map reference identifies the facility or selected trail area; it is not a surveyed parking stall or navigable route line. Bicycle and e-bike rules can differ; only ordinary bicycle use is established unless noted.
