Several VPL staff members and their spouses use parts of the Central Valley Greenway (CVG) for their daily commute, and recently the 24km of Greenway just got a little bit better. A previously awkward and slightly treacherous passage over a portion of Still Creek has been much improved with a flatter bridge. So smooth is the transition that you may not even know you are cycling over the creek.
