Bidwell Park reconnected with an old friend. The City of Chico held a ribbon cutting for its completion of the Annie Glen bike way under-crossing. Annie's Glen, located near Mangrove Ave and Vallombrosa Ave, has been a part of Bidwell Park for a very long time. It recently was reunited via a bike way that cuts below Mangrove Ave, which created a division in the Lower Park area. Now bicyclists do not have to cut across busy streets to get from one side to the other. It also allows for a safer bike route for children going and coming to local schools. In addition to the tunnel being completed, it was decorated with tiles from students to give it a very nice beautification.
