My B-Line experience

The B-Line Trail is a 3.1-mile long walking trail. It provides a way for neighborhood residents and tourists to travel without the use of a car. There you can see the local scenery and culture and meet people who love sports. They are all there in different ways. Today was my first experience with the B-Line, and I chose to start at my Kroger because it was a convenient place to park and a place

I used to visit. But never noticed that there was a long sidewalk in the back. This time I found it via Google Maps and it presented a very straight green line on the map. After the rain the weather was much cooler than the previous days and you could still clearly hear the birds chirping. The surrounding trees and grass also brought me a lot of fresh air, which immediately relaxed my mood. When I stood on the street of B-line I couldn’t see the end of this pedestrian street at all, a long straight line like a dragon.Unfortunately, I had a cold and I didn’t have the strength to walk the whole way, so I walked for 10 minutes and then returned. The 10-minute walk also allowed me to see a variety of people and the habits of the local people. I was very tired after a long day at home, but the surroundings made me feel very comfortable. Especially some fresh air made my body more clear.

 

 

 

 

Roadside amenities and stores

As I walked along for three minutes I saw the exercise facilities designed by the school’s health department. These facilities are some equipment that will not make you exercise strenuously and are designed to stimulate our bodies as walkers. Each piece of equipment will have some explanation and recommendations for the number of movements. I think the equipment is very interesting and has a feeling of being in the park. It also gives everyone who passes by more opportunities for interaction. I also tried the equipment myself, there is a feeling of returning to childhood. The whole body also feels opened up, walking can obviously feel lighter and more energetic feet. Some of the idle houses on the side of the road are also for sale. Different graffiti can be seen everywhere, they are all on the walls of houses.

I found that there were not many cars on the side of the road, so I easily walked across the road. The first store I saw was a coffee shop. The aroma of coffee and desserts attracted me as I approached. If I didn’t have to go back to blogging I would have enjoyed the food there. On the second floor of the cafe you can get some transportation, like some bikes and scooters, I believe those are left behind by the people who come to the store. This also makes us feel the convenience of this street to people. You can come here by different means of transportation.

People on the trail

I saw all kinds of people enjoying the B-Line in their own way. because of the starting location, I saw most of the people coming out of Kroger. They passed by as if it was a normal day carrying bags of things they bought from the supermarket. Some were walking and I even heard a lady singing. More people’s were riding home on scooter with their purchases. I was very jealous that they could go back via such a safe and convenient road as the B-line. On the way back t they could also enjoy the scenery on the road.

Types of transportation

The majority of the population is walking like me. The second largest group of people bike and scooter for transportation. They all ride not too fast, which also makes me feel very safe. And their overall quality is very good, they will choose a route with less people to ride or follow behind others. I also met people who were exercising, some of them chose to walk fast and some to jog. Everything seemed to be in order. There were even some people using skateboards and roller skates for recreation.

Connectivity and Land Uses

As a first experience with B-line I found it quickly. I parked in the Kroger parking lot and saw it within a 30 second walk. There was also a bus stop on the side of the road where you could see some people waiting for a bus. During the walk I saw many intersections where I could park. Not only some parking lots but also some bike and scooter parking stations. This allows visitors to enter at different sections of the road. There were also some homes on the side of the road and their houses all looked beautiful. I would feel more energetic if I was one of them getting up every day and seeing the people on the B-line. Of course walking on the B-line also allows you to see the local stores and food. It is a great way to bring more tourists into the culture and architecture of the area.

Smart city strategies

I noticed that from the time I started walking I didn’t know where I was currently located and where some of the places I could go. I think smart digital signage can make a better experience for visitors. These smart digital signs can be placed in places where there is a lot of traffic in and out. On one hand, they can let visitors know what programs and entertainment facilities are available in their location. On the other hand they can easily find the locations they want to go to or are interested in. This kind of smart navigation mode can greatly enhance the overall experience of visitors. Additional revenue can also be generated by planting advertisements for local restaurants and stores.

It is also extremely important to ensure the safety of visitors to the B-line. I felt less unsafe walking on the road before dark. But what if it’s dark and there are more homeless people nearby. These safety factors should be taken into consideration. The installation of surveillance cameras in public places can provide additional security. Identifying the face of the offender also facilitates pursuit. “They are the key to optimizing urban traffic and crowd management.”
