Doctor's Run Park: Both Journey and Destination Doctor's Run is an important park. It's a community gathering space, picnic area, volleyball venue, playground, and it's also an important transportation connection for those walking, biking, and scooting. The existing trail through Doctor's Run Park is part of the 12th St S Bicycle Boulevard, providing a safe place for people to bike & scoot parallel to Columbia Pike, and an important route for students at Randolph Elementary. As the Barcroft Apartments grow and evolve under their new ownership, this connection will only become more important. Speak up for the importance of the trail and path connections through the Park (and make sure the updated playground is great while you're at it). The existing trail is too steep, too windy, too narrow, has several steep drop-offs, and does not connect to 12th Rd S, which is the planned route for the bicycle boulevard extension through Barcroft. The renovation completely fails to connect the updated amenities to the existing trail making access very circuitous for families with strollers or kids on bikes! https://susmo.org/doctors-run-park-online-feedback/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=fedica
