Bikeway 99 Phase 5 Bridge Over 20th St Project RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY

Description

Chico, CA – Please join the City of Chico in celebrating the completion of the Bikeway 99 Phase 5 Bridge over 20th Street with a ribbon cutting ceremony to be held on Thursday, September 24, 2025 at 6:30 p.m. The event will be located where the Chico Marketplace parking lot connects with the Bikeway 99 bike path near Chili’s Restaurant. All are welcome! The ceremony will include key remarks by Mayor Kasey Reynolds, City staff, and guests. Light refreshments will be provided. For those that are interested, the ceremony will include a bike ride or walk over the bridge. If you will be riding your bicycle, please be safe! Wear a helmet and reflective gear, and use a bicycle light to increase visibility. The bridge represents the final phase of the Bikeway 99 Corridor Project and involved the construction of a Class I bikeway overcrossing East 20th Street, providing a safe link to destinations on both sides of the street and closing a critical gap in bicycle infrastructure along the east side of State Route 99. The Bikeway 99 Corridor serves as a continuous alternative transportation and recreational route from Eaton Road to Skyway, spanning nearly 7 miles. The City appreciates the Community’s patience during the Project’s current construction phase. We recognize that construction activities are often inconvenient, noisy, and cause delays in busy schedules. Thank you for your understanding!
