El Rio Trail

About

A 2.5-mile paved trail running along a waterway from Congress Avenue to Glades Road, perfect for kids learning to bike or families wanting a safe place to ride together. The trail connects to the T-Rex Trail at Yamato Road Tri-Rail station, where you can park for free. Good for kids comfortable on bikes since the 8-foot-wide path is designed for cycling with a center dividing line. Families often start at the Tri-Rail station and ride north toward the quieter Congress Avenue end. Water fountains are spaced along the route, and kids love spotting the iguanas sunning themselves by the water.

Detours for pedestrian and bike traffic is routed east on Spanish River Boulevard to NW 6th Avenue to cross. Please make sure to push the button at the intersection to activate the crossing light.1. Why was the crosswalk for the El Rio Trail at Spanish River Boulevard moved?Since the opening of I-95/FAU interchange on Spanish River Boulevard, the City has received numerous citizen concerns regarding pedestrian/bicyclist movement on the El Rio Trail crossing Spanish River Boulevard. The new connection to I-95 has increased traffic volumes on Spanish River Boulevard and put the crosswalk closer to a signalized intersection. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) added rectangular rapid flashing beacons (RRFBs) at this crosswalk to improve vehicular traffic that should yield to pedestrians and bicyclists. RRFBs alone were observed to not be effective enough at this location and had vehicular yielding rates under 50%. The City and its related stakeholders (FDOT and Palm Beach Transportation Planning Agency) are currently evaluating long-term solutions to address this concern. In the interim, as an immediate safety precaution, the City relocated the crosswalk to NW 6th Way to provide a crossing on Spanish River Boulevard at the closest signalized intersection.2. Was the old crosswalk connecting El Rio Trail a protected crosswalk?No, the old crosswalk was unsignalized and an unprotected crosswalk. RRFBs are not traffic control devices but rather a pedestrian-actuated device to enhance crossing notification. 3. Is the newly in
