A section of The Loop on the south side is being detoured to make way for construction of the Mosaic Quarter Sports Complex.So far, feedback has been positive. “It is much smoother. It’s a nice ride,' said AJ Sutton, an avid cyclist using the detour. The Loop is closed indefinitely between Kino and Irvington next to the Julian Wash. A paved detour along the I-10 was made for Loop users in the meantime.

Rothery and Holbrook tell me they hope the detour becomes a permanent part of the Loop because it avoids any car-bicycle interactions at the Kino South entrance.“It’s one more thing the cars don’t have to worry about, the cyclists don’t have to worry about,' said Rothery.Callie Norton, community engagement coordinator for Pima County Parks and Recreation, says they’re excited to see the community enjoying the detour.
