Due to the lack of a current westward bike/ped connection, the westernmost stretch of the path is being kept closed for now. The facility currently dead-ends there in the heavily industrial area, with no connection to Wilmington or San Pedro (more on those future connections below). The west end of the Bixby path is the intersection of the 710 Freeway and State Route 47, essentially the south end of the Schuyler Heim Bridge. From there cyclists can continue one long block north along Pico on a short (about 700 feet) two-way curb-protected bikeway, though mainly cyclists would continue east into downtown on the Connector, described below. The east end of the Bixby path is at Pico Avenue and Pier E Street. The bridge connects the eastern portion of the Port of Long Beach, across the Back Channel, to Terminal Island. The new bridge opened to car/truck traffic in 2020. The Mark Bixby Memorial Bicycle-Pedestrian Path is a two-mile long path attached to the south side of the Long Beach International Gateway Bridge, which is part of the 710 Freeway. The newly opened bikeway consists of two separate interconnected walk/bike facilities.

Shuttle rides are free for people with game-day tickets, beginning with the April 4 exhibition game against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. The shuttle will drop passengers behind right field. Those shuttles will run about every 15 minutes. The Harbor Gateway service will begin two hours before game time, and end 45 minutes after the game. Shuttles from the Harbor Gateway center, on 182nd Street just east of Vermont Avenue, will take advantage of the Metro ExpressLanes along the 110 Freeway to reach Dodger Stadium, according to Metro. This will be the first time the service is offered during the regular season. The shuttle was offered during the playoffs last season, with about 6,000 people taking advantage of the service, according to Rick Jager of Metro. Los Angeles Dodgers fans in the South Bay and Harbor Area will be able to catch a shuttle to games this season from the Harbor Gateway Transit Center.
