The Opportunity Corridor Trail is a trail that runs parallel to a boulevard called the Opportunity Corridor in Cleveland Ohio. It runs between I-490 and East 105th Street in Cleveland. Development of this boulevard and trail was designed to bring economic development and jobs to a depressed part of Cleveland, Ohio. The trail provides a transportation alternative to reach businesses along the corridor. One end of the trail starts in front of the Tudor Arms Hotel Cleveland located on Carnegie Ave. The trail turns at East 105th Street and follows East 105 until it changes to the afore mentioned Opportunity Corridor. The trail ends when it reaches the Cleveland Regional Transit Authority's East 55th Street Rapid Station where one can catch either a bus or a light rail train to reach other Cleveland locations.
When I rode this trail I parked by the Cleveland Museum of Art and rode the Harrison-Dillard Bikeway from the museum south until I reached Carnegie Avenue and then followed Carnegie Ave west for about 2/10ths of a mile until I reached the start of the trail in front of the Tudor Arms Hotel.
The Opportunity Corridor project opened in November of 2021 and the trail is still in very good shape. As with many urban trails there are places where you may find broken bottles and other items that may puncture tires so you do need to pay some attention to the trail surface. However, I did not find that debris was a major concern on my ride. There are a few major intersections along the corridor where one does need to pay attention to traffic/walk lights and traffic.
A previous reviewer of this trail said that they did not feel safe traveling through some of the neighborhoods along the trail. I did not experience the same anxiety. In fact I did not encounter anyone on the trail at all except from Carnegie Ave. to Cedar Ave. around the Cleveland Clinic medical campus.
While this trail is in fine shape, it is designed mainly as a commuter trail for local residents to get to work at businesses along the Opportunity Corridor. The trail will get more use when more businesses locate along the corridor. In addition, the Opportunity Corridor Trail gives residents in the depressed areas along the trail to reach museums located around Wade Oval in the University Circle neighborhood and also the Cleveland Cultural Gardens located along Martin Luther King Drive by connecting to the Harrison-Dillard Bikeway along Carnegie Avenue. This trail is probably most useful to those who live near it.
I am definitely biased, but having this trail a quarter of a mile from my house is a gift. The crushed limestone parts are very smooth and any bike will work. It does get rough for much of the trip. A mountain bike or gravel bike is needed. I have a hardtail mountain bike and that is perfect. I hope in the future they complete the trail with crushed limestone. But if they don't I will still be happy it's there.
I’m a newer rider and decided to ride from Ira trailhead north to Boston Mills. It was about a 14 mile round trip, mostly flat ride. It was absolutely beautiful for a crisp, fall ride! There were some areas of congestion along the way, but most of the ride was quiet and relaxing. I look forward to trying other areas of the trail!
We rode the roughly 30 miles from Fredericksburg to Killbuck and back. Paved trail with some nice views and lots of shaded areas. It’s a shared trail with horse/buggies and there are a lot of Amish on E-bikes pulling carts but the path is very wide. My only complaints are the bumps in some areas and the need to constantly dodge horse manure.
Really love this trail. Mostly shaded and they have ground down the tree roots but could use more road markings and signage at road crossings. The electric bikes and scooters are really becoming a problem.
The trail has been resurfaced and the section up to the Medina Career Center has been paved with asphalt. Trail is in excellent condition. Nice job Medina county!
Holmes County trail has recently been extended an extra 4 miles from the Glenmont trailhead. Killbuck trailhead is now approximately a 3 mile highway ride from the end of this new addition.
Rode out on Old Muskingum. He people, flat quiet, not too much to look at. then back on towpath but closed at Crystal Springs.
This short trail connects to other trails to make a loop from the Ohio and Erie trail. I started at Bacci park, north east to Garfield park, west on Morgana run. Then to this trail to Ohio and Erie connector. About a 18 mile loop.
Overgrown vegetation, trail has many bumps, west end of trail is detoured by freeway 77. Not a safe area either. Would be nice if the maintained this as it is a connector trail to Garfield and Washington trails that go to Ohio and Erie trail
Been awhile since I rode this trail. Started at Ernie’s in Massillon and rode into Dalton. The trail has a noticeable incline going from East to West and the wind is typically from West to East. The 10+ bridges are in good shape. The trail has had some improvements but around the 3 mile mark after riding new asphalt the section of about 3/4 is somewhat bumpy The scenery is nice and both ends of trail have stopping places to eat
