There are no dedicated parking lots for the Old Cheney Road Trail, but street parking is generally available in the neighborhoods along Old Cheney Road.
Just wanted to clear up any confusion about my first review. I intended to say that for anyone who lives remotely close to “old Cheney Road“, this trail is the fastest way to take them to the Jamaican North Trail, way out west along Wilderness Park.
I’m glad this trail exists, but I think most people would agree this is more an A-to-B trail than a ride-for-fun trail. The pavement is in pretty good shape and it’s at least 8 feet wide on all parts all the way down to Warlick Boulevard, which is good. In terms of a scenic route to meet up with Jamaica North Trail, or just riding for fun, I don’t see why someone wouldn’t choose to take Helen Boosalis the same direction, as that trail is a lot more interesting to ride. I would actually add a star if the city would extend the trail west about 1/4-1/2 mile to meet up with the Jamaica North, so that I wouldn’t have to take that last bit of journey on the really horrible condition sidewalk. It will still be purely a utilitarian trail, but it would be very good at accomplishing that purpose as the fastest route to Jamaica Nort for someone who lives anywhere near old Janie Road
Not my favorite; but I use it to connect my longer rides.
The city decided to widen a sidewalk and call it a trail. It's normal width, but one side is a sound wall and the other side is a curb and 45mph street. There's literally no green space.
It's very noisy, due to the 45mph traffic reverberating off the sound wall, both a few feet away. The surface is poorly maintained.
There are numerous crossings. It's not a safe place to ride. If possible, use one of the other trails to go around. It's more pleasant.
It is cleared in the winter, although sometimes it takes a couple of extra days as the clearing for the street tends to get pushed onto the trail.
