The city of Irvine’s new curb-protected bike lanes extend 1.25 miles on Cadence from Radial to Chinon
In November 2024, the city of Irvine celebrated the opening of bike lane improvements on Cadence in the city’s Great Park neighborhood.
The project added curb protection to existing unprotected bike lanes. The Cadence facility is similar to other Southern California curb-protected bikeways, including those in Santa Ana, Long Beach, Santa Monica, and Pomona.
Irvine’s new protected bike lanes extend 1.25 miles on Cadence (yes, the street is just called “Cadence”) from Radial to Chinon. It connects residential neighborhoods to Cadence Park Elementary/Middle School, as well as to nearby parks and trails.
