Reviewed 2026-10-22. Trail organization confirms this established asphalt greenway corridor. State-produced Bellevue map hosted by the organization expressly marks greenway/paved paths for cycling and unpaved nature paths for hiking. Its older map establishes use boundaries, not present work conditions; follow current signs. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.
