Thought we'd share a few shots of the new HTT to Swede Point Park trail under construction. Images show the beginnings of the crossing at Highway 210 and QF Lane and the separated side-path heading east toward QM Avenue. Anytime you're on the High Trestle Trail use QF Lane's advisory bike lanes to check on our progress!
