I'm guessing less than 5% of these trails have been built. They have a very long way to go and at a million dollars per mile its going to be extremely expensive.

Hopefully it will be heavily used, but so far from what I've seen the few trails I pass by are not being used hardly at all.

But I don't go by many of the; just the levee trail, the one along Nicholson by LSU, and the ones by the mall and that's it.

ETA: who is supposed to maintain these bike paths? The one along Nicholson between Brightside and LSU is not being kept up. Weeds have grown over half of it and its beginning to silt over in places. Few people use this on a regular basis. This may be why.
