In the Ohio Transit Hiker's Resource, an "amenity spur" is a route from the trail to something else that is unmaintained by signage or in-person labor myself.  Today was the first time that I needed to clarify one of these with a hand GPS set to record my movement.  At current day Bedford 24, the hiker could walk north on OH-306 and reach the LAKETRAN [coded T LTA (LT)] transfer point at the Lakeland Community College.  The problem is when the highway rapidly changes names, it inclines/ declines on a two lane road at 40 MPH with heavy traffic near an exit with Interstate 90.  It's not safe to be a pedistrian on that incline/ decline.

So I changed the spur to leave the Bedford Section - Buckeye Trail at a maintenance drive that leads to Kritland - Chardon Road.  Then the OTHR has the transit hiker reach the transfer point by way of Lakeland's back (east) entrance.
