Status: Construction is underway!
A .9 mile cycle track (aka protected bike lane) is coming to downtown St. Louis! The Tucker Bike-Walk-Bus improvement project is the second Trailnet-initiated Connecting St. Louis Project to move towards construction. It includes a cycle track, bus stop upgrades, and crosswalk improvements.
The improvements along Tucker Boulevard stretch between Chouteau Avenue and Washington Avenue, crossing the Mill Creek railyard and connecting into downtown. This North-South route creates a more-accessible, less-stressful, and safer connection into downtown.
The two-way cycle track and numerous intersection safety improvements along the corridor will create a safer connection for people walking, biking, and taking the bus. These improvements include bus islands, pedestrian refuge islands, Americans with Disabilities Act intersection improvements, crosswalk signal upgrades, and high-visibility crosswalks along this .9 mile stretch of Tucker Boulevard.
Construction started in Fall 2025.
The project is sponsored by the city of St. Louis and was developed by Trailnet and numerous community partners.
