The SMART Train or Sonoma Marin Rail Area Transit train will extend from Larkspur Ferry on the San Francisco Bay to Cloverdale, the northernmost community in Sonoma County. The 1.3 mile section from Hearn Avenue to the Joe Rodota Trail is one segment of the proposed 70-mile SMART Trail that provides a north-south bicycle and pedestrian pathway parallel to the train tracks from Larkspur in Marin County to Cloverdale in Sonoma County.
The pathway provides connections to other bicycle and pedestrian paths, such as the existing Joe Rodota Trail and Prince Memorial Greenway, and the planned Mark West Creek Trail and Bellevue Creek Trails.
