A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

Albany-Corvallis Trail: One segment’s done

Written October 25th, 2023 by Hasso Hering

It was early in August when I took this photo. It’s on the south side of the new configuration of Highway 20 at Independence Highway, an ODOT safety project that had just been completed.

Written March 12th, 2015 by Hasso Hering

It’s wishful thinking, I know, but a bike bridge across the Willamette River might actually avoid all kinds of other complications as the search continues for a more or less direct Albany-Corvallis Trail.

Cor-Alb trail funds OK’d: And now?

Written August 22nd, 2014 by Hasso Hering

The Aug. 16 story about the Corvallis-Albany — or Albany-Corvallis, depending on our viewpoint — bike trail generated more comments on this webside than any previous item.

Corvallis-Albany trail may get $2 million

Written June 12th, 2014 by Hasso Hering

Good news on the cycling front — I think. The long-planned Corvallis-Albany bike trail may soon get $2 million of the roughly $4.8 million it is estimated to cost. The project ended up 18th on a statewide priority list of funding under the program known as Connect Oregon V (that’s V as in 5).
