JACKSON, Wyo. — Next week, on April 19, the Town of Jackson will be re-installing the protected bicycle lanes on Snow King Avenue.

Snow King Avenue serves as the primary east-west bicycle route through the town of Jackson, connecting the downtown and neighborhoods in East Jackson to destinations such as the Teton County Library, the Jackson/Teton County pathway system, the public school campuses, and commercial areas and neighborhoods in West Jackson.

The protected bike lanes feature paint markings and flexible plastic delineators to offset the bike lane from motor vehicle traffic, which the town says provides improved safety and comfortable riding conditions for people of all ages and abilities. The protected bike lanes run from Cache Street to Scott Lane and continue on Scott Lane and Maple Way to the start of the Garaman Pathway along Flat Creek. The layout of the protected bike lanes will remain the same as last year.
