The James City County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a $50,000 addition of two access points to the Virginia Capital bike trail, yet cyclists do not feel that the addition is necessary. According to the Virginia Gazette a representative from the Historic Triangle Bicycle Advisory Committee told the board that these access points would be a luxury, but not a necessity. With the new access cuts covering 43 feet combined, local bikers feel that the funds would be better spent making dangerous riding areas safer.
