College station has a connection to the St. Clair County Transit District's 14 mile (22.5 km) MetroBikeLink shared-use path system. This was the first segment of the MetroBikeLink system when it opened in 2002 and consisted of a 4 mile (6.4 km) trail, running from the Swansea station to Southwestern Illinois College.[3] Here, trail users can connect with pathways on the college campus and the East Belleville YMCA Loop Trail just north of Illinois Route 161 (Carlyle Avenue).
