Hi there. The bike trail that goes from Park Ridge to the by-pass along the railroad tracks is in serious need of trimming back the vegetation. It is getting difficult to ride with all the obstacles growing into the trail. Thank you.
There is a tree limb across the multi-use path on the north side of the Miller Showers Park.
On Saturday evening, I was running on the Renwick Trail that connects Moores Pike to Sare Road. On the trail, a man was repeatedly driving a moped with children on the back of the moped. The trail, I believe, is intended only for cyclists, runners, and walkers, not for motorized vehicles, though there is no sign overtly prohibiting such use. The trail is winding and narrow and it was getting dark, making it very dangerous for this moped to drive through the trail. Several runners had to step off the trail to avoid the vehicle. I confronted the man about the issue, telling him it was not safe, but he was resistant, saying if I showed him a sign he would stop. I suspect he intends to ride the trail again. I request that, assuming such use of the trail is prohibited, a sign for the trail and for the police to keep an eye out for this man on his moped to keep the trail safe. Thank you.
We really need a restroom or at least a port-o-potty in this park
On Winslow Park trail west side by batting cage a medium size tree has fallen across trail. Also on east side in wooded section all the illumination lights are dark - not working. Thanks, GG
A B-Line Trail bicyclist using one of our maintenance stations reported to me that there are trail lights out on the trail near the overpass on the section northwest of Rogers.
Several of the bridges on the trail at RCA park have severe damage. One of them has been broken for weeks, the other has several broken boards and has become unsafe in the last day. There is also a deep pot hole in the asphalt. I am sending pictures of the problems. I greatly appreciate what all of you do! Thank you!
For the last few mornings there have been cars parked in front of the entrance to the Polly Grimshaw bike bath on the street right by the Park Ridge Park playground. I would like to request a more visible "no parking" sign be installed as this can be very inconvenient and even dangerous depending on how fast you are going on a bike.
I routinely walk along S. Highland Ave. just north of the Y and then around the Winslow Sports Complex trail. I've noticed a lot of poison ivy growning very close to the sidewalk and then along the trail on the west side (near Highland) near the batting cages. I hope someone will see to it that this is removed or killed so no pedestrians are at risk. Thanks
Tree fallen down on Bloomington Rail Trail. About one mile away from Old Country Road starting point.
