Coyote Creek bicycle path

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Coyote Creek bikeway is a Class 1 bike path in Los Angeles County that runs adjacent to the Coyote Creek flood control channel for approximately 9.5 miles. The path begins in Santa Fe Springs on the North fork of the Coyote Creek and extends south into Long Beach where it joins the San Gabriel River bicycle path at the trail bridge just South of Willow street/Katella avenue.

Coyote Creek separates Los Angeles County and Orange County. A curious feature of the bikeway is that the East/West streets that intersect the flood control channel change names as they cross over.

The bikeway is generally devoid of scenery. The Northern section of the bikeway passes through industrial neighborhoods consisting of warehouses and light manufacturing. The middle section, from route 91 to Ball (Road?)/Wardlow (Road?), passes adjacent to residential neighborhoods. This is the most scenic section of the route. There is convenient access to the Cerritos Regional Park, just north of La Palma (Road?)/Del Amo (Road?). The bikeway crosses from the West to the East side of the channel at Centrailia (Road?). The Southern section of the bikeway passes adjacent a collection of zones: light industrial, apartments, schools, etc.

[edit] Future plans

The OCTA Commuter Strategic Bikeways Plan (CSBP) calls for extension of the Coyote Creek Bikeway from Walker St in La Palma to Imperial Hwy and Beach Blvd in La Habra. Currently the cities of La Habra and La Mirada are working to establish the northern section of this bikeway from Rosecrans Ave to Imperial Hwy.
