Google Maps- Cape Coral Bike Lanes

By
Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Utah

Google announced today a layer in Google Maps that shows bike routes.  They state that they have worked with Rails-to-Trails Conservancy to identify existing bicycling trails.  Using Google maps you can now select the More button and pick the Bicycling layer which shows different indicators for bicycling paths.  The dark solid green represents official bike lanes, while the light green are suggested routes.  As you can see Cape Coral has a good number of official bike lanes.  The quality of a community can often be enhanced with access to safe bicycling lanes. 

 

 

 

Lee County also publishes a map that includes maps of Ft. Myers and Sanibel Island.

Huh...  Really neat feature from Google Maps...  We are in the process of trying to get more bike paths here in Wilmington NC and Rails to trails has been a great source of information and help!

WOW, Thanks Mike, I rode around Boca Grande years ago on their Rails to Trails. This Google tool makes it easy to find the trails.
