Parks & Playgrounds:

Other: Bicyclists in parks and on trails do not notify walkers that they are coming up behind them. Other countries have bells on the bikes which the bikers use to alert someone that they are coming up behind. It is startling to have someone fly by, esp when walking a dog. Dogs could dart out in the path of the bike if the walker is not aware the biker is behind them. The City needs signage in every park and on every trail to remind bikers that they need to signal their approach when coming up behind a walker, esp one with a dog/dogs.

Thanks for this idea. Etiquette is a hard thing to monitor, but I'll also refer this to Hank Duncan, the City's Bike and Pedestrian Coordinator as he looks a t a lot of these issues city-wide.
