The amenity spur from the local transit agency LAKETRAN (listed on the OTHR as "LT") to the present Bedford 24 has been amended. The reason is that the original amenity spur was routed from Lakeland Community College, and then to OH-306 where the speed limit is 40MPH with aggressive and congested traffic. For the next edition, I decided to route transit hikers through Lakeland's back entrance on Garfield Road to the Lake Metroparks maintenance drive on the NE side of the Penitentiary Glen Reservation. In the next edition, this transit point will be known as Bedford 24 - NE.
I did try to route using the Kirtland Connector Trail, but in by-passing the affected hill on OH-306, it brought it's total length up to 4.1 miles. That means that it's 0.1mi too long to meet the specifications for the Ohio Transit Hiker's Resource (OTHR).
