North Claiborne Avenue trailhead

North Claiborne is the downtown-side trail approach toward Tremé and Armstrong Park, with a major street crossing requiring attention.

Use legal neighborhood parking only if necessary. The greenway works best as a bike, walk, transit, or point-to-point route; do not leave valuables visible in vehicles.

The public greenway is intended for daily transportation and recreation; developed facilities, playgrounds, courts, lighting, programs, and adjacent businesses use separate schedules.

Reliable always-open public restrooms are limited along the corridor. Recreation facilities and businesses have independent access and hours.

The trail, public landscapes, art, basketball, and ordinary recreation are free. Programs, rentals, food, and events may charge.

The paved shared-use path is generally accessible, but street crossings, construction, drainage, crowds, and temporary detours require attention.

Leashed dogs are allowed; keep them short at crossings and around bikes, runners, playgrounds, courts, gardens, and food areas.

Short sections near playgrounds, FitLot, art, and Bayou St. John suit families. The full corridor includes busy street crossings and fast bicycle traffic.

North Claiborne is the downtown-side trail approach toward Tremé and Armstrong Park, with a major street crossing requiring attention. This is a transportation corridor as well as a park. Keep right, signal passing, supervise children at every street crossing, and check current construction or extension detours.

The greenway is itself a car-free connector and intersects bus, streetcar, bikeshare, neighborhood bicycle, and walking routes.
