Riverfront Bike Trail
The Roy A. Battagello River Walk Bike Trail is the current backbone of the "Windsor Loop" bike trail network in Windsor, Ontario. The bike trail travels from the foot of the Ambassador Bridge (at Peter Street and Huron Church Road), to traffic lights at Riverside Drive and Lincoln Avenue (continuing as bike lanes to George Avenue and Wyandotte Street, for a total distance of ). This makes the trail the second-longest trail in the City of Windsor (the longest being the mostly-unpaved West Windsor Recreationway), at 8.0 km.
The trail travels through Windsor's downtown, and many of its parks, such as Dieppe Gardens. Many cities across North America (such as Detroit, Michigan, Toledo, Ohio, Toronto, Ontario, New York City, New York, and San Francisco, California) have expressed interest in similar riverfront parkland and bike trails, and many (such as Detroit) have already started construction on their own parks and trails. Throughout its history, the trail was repeatedly widened and upgraded, and even is paved with the original asphalt and cement used on the Ambassador Bridge. The trail has a posted speed limit of 20 km/h.
== Start and end points ==
The bike trail starts officially at Peter Street and Huron Church Road, across the street from the University of Windsor. It crosses several streets via traffic lights, and ends at Lincoln Avenue and Riverside Drive at another pair of stoplights. It provides a very efficient and quick way of walking or biking across the city (or even as a downtown bypass). It continues down Riverside Drive as a pair of Bike Lanes, towards Strabane Avenue. However, between Riverside Drive/Huron Church Road, and Lincoln Avenue, there are NO stoplights, providing a very quick and effective way of travelling across the city. One feature found only on River Walk Bike Trail and the Ganatchio Trail are that they are wide-enough for three "lanes" each way, meaning three bicycles can drive abreast in each direction without worrying about a collision. It is along this part of the bike trail that the Odette Sculpture Garden is located.
