El Rio Trail

About

A 2.5-mile paved trail running along a waterway from Congress Avenue down to Glades Road, perfect for families wanting a safe biking and walking route. The trail connects to the T-Rex Trail at Yamato Road Tri-Rail station, where you can park for free and access both trail systems. Great for kids learning to bike since it's wide with a center line and away from direct car traffic. You'll spot iguanas sunbathing along the water, and there are water fountains positioned along the route. The trail also offers fishing spots and connects to Countess de Hoernle Park for additional play options.

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
