Never say never ;-)

Bexely Trail is a 4 lane county road across the Turnpike with cart paths along side.

The 470 bridge will need to be replaced as part off the 470 widening. So the possibility is there.

The old southern Warm Springs bridge probably needs to be replaced for the widening. Significant Commercial space is reserved at that corner. There's already a cart tunnel there and the power lines jog south making room.

Some of these new bridges South of us include pedestrian/bike lanes across the Turnpike bridges. Not that big a leap to make them cart lanes.
