The Little River Extension (full name: Ganatchio Trail – Little River Extension) is one of the newest and busiest recreational trails in Windsor, Ontario, having been built in 1996. The trail is used mainly as a link between the large subdivision of Forest Glade, to Ganatchio Trail, Sandpoint Beach, Stop 26 Beach, and Lakeview Park And Marina. The trail has a posted speed limit of .〔http://www.all-acronyms.com/LITTLE_RIVER_EXTENSION〕 The Trail was sponsored by Lions Club International, Kiwanis, and Rotary International, as a gesture of goodwill for the eastern side of the city. The trail sees a great deal of traffic in the summer time, but nowhere near as much as the Riverfront Bike Trail. The trail has a commemorative sign depicting its length, map location, and a sign for the Lions Club International and Rotary International at the northern roundabout/traffic circle with the Ganatchio Trail. The trail also has a second roundabout/traffic circle with the extension of Little River Road, which leads west towards the Riverside and Villages of Riverside neighbourhoods. ==Connections with other trails== Currently, the Little River Extension connects to the Ganatchio Trail to the north, and to the Little River Road Trail and Bike Lanes to the west (where they intersect at another traffic circle). The trail crosses an extended Wyandotte Street, with its own bike lanes, at a grade-separated interchange, and a link to the bike trail along McHugh Street extension is under way. The trail ends at the end of Penang Lane (a very quiet residential street), and the busy Tecumseh Road. The trail travels west along the north side of Tecumseh Road to the newly installed traffic signals at the Windsor Smart Car dealership, and then along the western edge of the dealership, towards Esplanade Drive (a residential street). The trail then passes two grade schools (with small paved trails connecting each to the trail), and through the small forest between the schools and Ridge Road (another residential street), before terminating just east of the intersection of Ridge and Kerby Road (one more residential street). On the other side of the Smart Car dealership traffic lights, the trail proceeds west to the Little River-Hawthorne Drive connector trail, and links east towards Forest Glade Drive, to the proposed bike lanes along that arterial road. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little River Extension」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
