This recommendation would likely be met with some strong opposition

controversial, so this would be just adding to the controversy and
complication of this project. However, in general, I feel now is
exactly the time we should be widening the path given the high volume.
The public hearing would be a great opportunity to encourage this.
Thoughts?
This more a guess than a thought:
The high volume of traffic on the path is a measure of its success.
Many of those enjoying that success are neighbors, including homeowners
along the path. My guess is that there's a lot less opposition from
homeowners now than there was before the path was built: This path is
one of the things that makes the neighborhoods that it passes through
attractive.
There's clearly a need for widening the path. That need is obvious to
anyone who uses it. I think there would be overwhelming support for
widening it.
