It was only a few years back that the Chandler Boulevard railroad right-of-way was converted into the Chandler Bike Path.

By: Shelley Rizzotti

Families that live nearby to the area went from waking up in the early a.m. from the cargo trains rattling their homes to getting up for a peaceful early morning stroll. The Chandler Bike Path officially opened to the public on August 20, 2004. Covering a 2 mile stretch from Mariposa Street to the outer edge of Burbank at Clybourn Avenue it’s a very popular routine within the community. This has made a great difference in the health of many residents, making it easy to get out there and exercise. This is not only a bike path, you will see entire families walking, skating, pulling a wagon with the kids or taking the dogs on a walk. The path is also well lit and accompanied by benches. By going to their website, you’ll find rules of the bikeway along with safety tips and any events coming up in the near future at http://chandlerbikewayburbank.com/
