WOODBINE – The Borough of Woodbine has made application to the New Jersey Department of Transportation Bikeways Program.
The application, in the amount of $226,468.75, is for the extension of the Woodbine Bikeway System which would continue to traverse through the Open Space recreational area and environmental educational park as well as to the Community School site which includes a branch of the Cape May County Library.
From there it will continue to the intersection of Heilprin and Sumner.
This bikeway extension is part of an overall plan to interconnect publically-owned sites within the Borough to New Jersey’s High Point to Cape May bikeway system. It also connects to the Belleplain State Forest Trail system and is part of the planned county-wide bikeways system that will eventually extend to the Cape May County Zoo.
“This will provide another option for Woodbine’s bikeway system to connect with the overall County-wide biking and pedestrian trailways,” concluded Mayor William Pikolycky. “NJDOT has been very supportive in the past in providing funds for our bikeways infrastructure, which is well used by both locals and visitors for both biking and walking.”
