The Trinity River Trail is closed at University Drive in Fort Worth. If you are following the trail and want to avoid the traffic on University, here is a handy detour (http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/Trinity-Trail-at-University-Detour).
This detour goes around the closed section with a minimum of exposure to heavy car traffic. If heading toward downtown, exit the trail on Rogers, proceed north, then turn right on Collinsworth, a left on Wabash, and go into the shopping center. Turn right on the shopping center road that leads to the traffic light at University and Old University. Cross University at the light and follow Old University to the little traffic circle at its end, where there is access to get back onto the Trinity Trail.
