Yahara River Parkway and Burr Jones Park
The Yahara River Parkway is open space parallel to the Yahara River, owned and overseen by the City of Madison Parks Division. Paved, shared-use paths run through and make connections to the Yahara River Parkway. Burr Jones Park is a neighborhood park owned and overseen by the City of Madison Parks Division. The Madison East-West BRT Project will operate in center-running bus-only lanes on East Washington Avenue over the Yahara River Parkway and adjacent to Burr Jones Park. The project would not use any part of these parks for construction or permanent purposes.
