    CONNECTING THE LOOP THREE RIVERS PARK Defining Strategies for Implementation Presented by the Riverlife Task Force Pittsburgh May 2003 CONNECTING THE LOOP THREE RIVERS PARK Defining Strategies for Implementation n August 2002, Mayor Tom Murphy issued a challenge to the Riverlife Task TABLE OF CONTENTS Force: How can we link Pittsburgh’s three rivers with a continuous system of BACKGROUND 3 trails and riverfront parkland for people of all ages? Which trails are currently ELEMENTS OF THE LOOP 4 TRAIL SEGMENT ANALYSIS 7 connected? Which are not? How do we establish connections that do not yet APPENDIX 87 exist? What exciting destinations can we create along the shoreline? I. PROJECT SUMMARY 88 I II. ANTICIPATED PROBABLE COSTS 94 After walking the entire shoreline within the bounds of Three Rivers Park, we hired III. EXCERPTS FROM RIVERLIFE 96 a team of architects, landscape architects and civil engineers to present options DESIGN GUIDELINES and propose solutions for riverfront trails, bridge connections and water landings. Connecting the Loop presents a range of ways to establish a continuous trail system with acquisition, design and construction that can be phased over the next decade. We offer this as a resource for property owners, planners, developers, public agencies and non-profit organizations, and we urge them to seize moments of opportunity to undertake projects, large and small. For the Riverlife Task Force, the plan will also serve as a guide as we work with public and private stakeholders to develop long and short-term priorities. We are proud to present Connecting the Loop and we invite you to work with us to return Pittsburgh’s greatest asset to the public — its rivers and miles of shoreline.

    MAPS & COORDINATES The Explorer riverboat docks on Pittsburgh's North Shore at the Rivers of Steel Dock, near the headwaters of the Ohio River and adjacent to the Carnegie Science Center. On Google Maps you can search for "Rivers of Steel: Explorer Riverboat" - or use the following GPS coordinates: 40.445918, -80.019547 (40°26'45.3"N 80°01'10.4"W). For turn-by-turn directions, refer to page 2, below the PARKING information. PARKING Parking is available at the Carnegie Science Center's paid parking lots. Please review their parking information here: http://www.carnegiesciencecenter.org/visit/parking. The directions below lead you to enter their main lot from a secondary entrance, located on an unnamed road off of Casino Drive, as this is the closest and most direct entrance to Explorer. Paystations are located in the lobby of the Carnegie Science Center and in the Science Center’s North Lot. The North Lot is also accessible from Casino Drive. Guests who are visiting Explorer after the Carnegie Science Center is closed may find the North Lot more convenient because of the proximity to that paystation. DIRECTIONS FROM DOWNTOWN PITTSBURGH Guest traveling from Downtown Pittsburgh have options! By Foot or Bike: Simply cross the Allegheny River via the Roberto Clemente Bridge (6th Street Bridge), and then turn left and take the stairs down to the Three Rivers Heritage Trail. Head west (downriver, towards the point) and our dock is less than 1 mile down the trail. We can secure up to three bikes on our dock. By Light Rail a.k.a.
