San Antonio Greenway Trails
I received this email from Jorge Tijerina (River City Bent Riders ) and wanted to it share with you:
“I read your story about the Salado Creek Greenway on your website. I often go to the Greenway meetings which are held once a month and ride on the Leon Creek Greenway about 2 to 3 times a week. All of the greenways are 10 feet wide and have trail heads located on the trail to park your car. The trail heads have portable restrooms and water fountains. The greenways are patrolled by the San Antonio Parks and Recreation Police Department. The Leon Creek Greenway has about 14 miles of trail to ride, walk or jog on. The other Greenways we have are Salado Creek and River Median Creek Greenways. San Antonio is planning to expand the greenways throughout the city. The Salado Creek Greenway trail will someday go through Fort Sam Houston Fort which would make about 16 miles long and the Median River Greenway will be connected to the Mission Trail making that trail the longest trail in the city. Someday the Leon Creek and Salado Creek Greenway will also be connected. If you want to know more about the greenways go San Antonio Parks and Recreation website. That website is http://www.sanantonio.gov/parksandrec/ . San Antonio was awarded the Bronze Award this past year for being a bike friendly city. San Antonio is still working very hard to become more bike friendly city. …”
