The southerly terminus of East Bay Bike Path is situated at Independence Park, Bristol Harbor. The path continues to East Providence, constructed on an abandoned railway. This corridor allows to see some of the best Narragansett Bay views. The path is a valued Bristol's commodity and allows bikers, walkers and roller skaters to enjoy the region. The construction of East Bay Bike Path was contested by residents before construction due to the potential of crime. However, it has turned into a welcome asset to the community and anticipated crime is non-existent.
