NEW ORLEANS - David Cameron rode along the newly-opened Lafitte Greenway Friday morning; it's now his normal way to get to the French Quarter.

The Mid-City resident says he can safely ride between the most popular parts of the city with less close encounters with cars.

"It helps me get off of Canal Street and really helps me get to the Quarter much faster," he said.

City leaders gathered at the Greenway Friday to celebrate its opening and the neighborhoods it connects.
