The East Entrance to the Cedar View Trail

Heading west toward the new trail bridge over the under-construction Hwy 34 bypass

The bridge approach simulates railroad tracks

Preparing the approach for the brick paving

Smoothing out the sand

Compacting the sand for a good base for the bricks

Placing the bricks with a supervisor watching.

Cutting the final bricks to shape.

Spreading sand on the bricks to lock them together.

The Art Deco decorative posts soften the chain link fence.

A side view of the new bridge.

Looking north. Note the trail on the right side of the photo - it is not complete.

Looking south from the trail bridge. This new freeway will be finished in 2008, and will have a trail beside it.

Let's head back. Another day we can continue westbound to the bridge over Cedar creek (Details here).

Heading back to the parking lot (eastbound)

Across the street (looking east) from the CVT parking lot
