Andrew,
I wouldn't mind helping with that but I'm not sure how. Would running/walking
any of the roads/trails with a gps watch then downloading the information help?

The weather's getting really nice, and I'd like to start running on campus
again.
Given the messages I've seen about changes in running accessibility, referring
to the map seems about right. The attached map from the ORNL website is
evidently current as of November 2007. Seven years seems like a decent
interval for an updated map of permitted access/use. Naturally I can't make
such a request without volunteering to be part of the solution, so I hereby
volunteer to do the cartography if someone can point me to the GIS shapefiles
of the roads and buildings, and if someone can compile/vet the list of places
where running and biking are currently permitted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Andrew Balser

Yes, it is closed to runners and walkers.
Thank you,

Joan,
Is old Bethel Valley Rd. (after they do the truck inspection) closed to runners
now? It was such a nice quiet place to run that kept you away from the traffic.

Be safe!!!
Walking/running/cycling in the dark: Wear bright, reflective clothing! A must!
It's spring, which means daffodils, cyclists and joggers are popping up along
the highways. It's also Daylight Saving Time, which comes earlier than it used
to, resulting in dark and gloomy morning commutes.
For foot travelers and cyclists, the old school safety poster read "Wear white
at night." The advice still holds.
Pedestrians, joggers and cyclists should wear light colored or reflective
clothing when walking or riding near roadways in the dark. Dark clothes make an
individual practically invisible under certain conditions. Wear white/bright
outer covering is a good idea; reflective tape is preferable. Some sort of
light is even better.
If you are walking/running/cycling along roads in the dark, make yourself
conspicuous. The advice is the same for daylight: Wear bright colors so
motorists will see you. Have a <a
