Parleys Crossing

For Coco's afternoon walk, I went over to Parleys Crossing and captured a few photos of the new pedestrian bridge. This bridge will be a boon for cyclists. It will connect Parleys Hollow to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. This will be a nice, safe green corridor into Salt Lake City.

Here are a few websites related to the project. The Bonneville Shoreline Trail is a 72 mile trail that follows the benches carved by ancient Lake Bonneville. This new bridge connects the BST to the Parleys Pratt Trail. This trail will follow Parleys Creek and eventually cut over to Sugarhouse Park.

Currently the Parleys Hollow area is a favorite destination for Utah dog owners. It will be interesting to see what happens when the new bridge brings cycling traffic into the hollow. There are many people who would love to see dogs banned from the Parleys Hollow area. Here are more trail resources for Salt Lake City. Here are a few of the pictures I took during the walk:
