Description
There are multiple convenient access points to George Bush park almost everywhere around it, except for the very long southeastern stretch of its border. Hikers and bikers from Westheimer@SH-6 area have to drive north or west to gain access to this wonderful park and its trails. It would extremely convenient to have another access to the park (well, at least to the trail on the dam and the one along the ditch) around where West Oaks Village shopping center is. City of Houston already appears to have some property in that area on 2270 Barker Oaks Dr. There used to be some water facility, but now that property is empty (although, it is still fenced). It would be great to have a trail next to it for hikers and bikers to get to the dam and the trail next to the ditch. That trail is the only major south-north off-the-road thoroughfare in the area. It grants safe access to miles of trails and other amenities in the study area. Such an access point also would make commute in north-south direction by bike a lot safer and more desirable (SH-6 is just too dangerous for that at the moment).
