The trail runs along Clairview in parts that were left intact, but many intersecting streets, such as Watson Avenue, were closed off, allowing only pedestrians and cyclists to go through.

In May 2007, part of the Ganatchio Trail was relocated to travel just south of a parking lot at Sandpoint Beach.

The Little River Extension trail, headed south, now runs through a tunnel under Wyandotte Street that was built in late 2007.

In 2006 Windsor City Council was in talks with CN Rail and Hiram Walker Distillery on buying a spur line and converting the railroad tracks into a rail trail, for easy connection to the Riverfront Bike Trail in Downtown and the west end.

The city had several plans in the event of a relocation of railways: The City of Windsor expressed intentions of creating a bike trail, bike lane, and signed-route/Bike-Friendly Street "beltway" around Windsor, using pre-existing routes, lanes, and trails, and adding new ones to streets.

Row Expressway to the subdivision of Forest Glade, where it would turn north on Lauzon Road (not Lauzon Parkway), and follow the current signed route and path along Hawthorne Drive (a residential street), to the Little River Extension, before meeting back up with the Ganatchio Trail at the roundabout/traffic circle.
