It'll be a while until I get my ass out there again, but does anybody know
the status of construction on the Wantagh Parkway? Have they finally
finished the new bridge? And is the bikeway being re-routed, too? From
what I've seen of the new bridge, it appears to present a steeper climb
than
the existing one. I sure hope they thought it out well enough and that
they
don't make it so kids and "weekend" riders can't make it past that point.
I spoke to one of the DOT guys on the project to extend this bikeway along
Ocean Parkway. Although he didn't say it outright, the implication was
that
we shouldn't hold our breath on this.
