Old Middleton Road between Capital Avenue and the Middleton limit will
be reconstructed in 2009.

Sure, such a bike trail would be nice. I bike from Shorewood Hills to
Middleton once a month via Old Middleton Road. I find this route
acceptable, and once I am past the Old Sauk Road intersection, it is
almost pleasant with modest car travel - EXCEPT that stretch from
Capitol Ave to the Middleton city limit. The pavement is a bouncy
blacktop jumble. Its one-foot wide ped/bike lanes are overgrown by
bushes, and a mailbox blocks it in one place. Instead of asking for or
dreaming about a pie-in-the-sky, way-off-in-the-future trail overbuilt
to expensive federal(?) standards, I'd rather have soon a decently
surfaced Old Middleton with bushes trimmed. Much cheaper than the
trail, and adequate for the small group, unfortunately, of
long-distance bike commuters.
