CV Link in La Quinta officially open

LA QUINTA, Calif. (KESQ) - City by city, CV Link has been opening up throughout the valley, and on Monday morning, the La Quinta section was officially open for travel.

The La Quinta ribbon cutting had complimentary bike rentals and refreshments for all present to enjoy.

The 40-mile CV Link corridor provides a safe route for low speed electric vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, and skateboarders to travel safely through the valley.

La Quinta Mayor Linda Evans says the path of the CV Link goes through the city along the back of La Quinta's commercial corridor from Washington Street to Jefferson Street, which will activate the commercial corridor even further.

Evans noted, "Our 2.6 miles has been really an uninterrupted path. We did not have the controversies that other cities had in terms of going through neighborhoods per se, golf courses, things like that."

The City of Palm Desert also had the official ribbon cutting of its section of the CV Link, on Monday afternoon.
