Erosion of pavement on Clear-Creek trail at the Tapp Road overpass.
Erosion of pavement on Clear-Creek trail at the Tapp Road overpass.
We were saddened this morning to find all of this fireworks trash on the Jackson Creek Trail (East Branch). As far as we know, this trail is city property and, per state law, should *not* have been used to set off fireworks. It would seem appropriate to fine the neighborhood resident who illegally used the city's property for fireworks last night. We do hope that those persons involved will also be cleaning up this fireworks trash. Thanks for your kind assistance!
Several weeks ago I reported that the park has too few trash cans. Having walked this park twice daily since the late 1990's, I suggest that the trend of decreasing the availability of trash cans has reached a ridiculous level. During this winter, it appears there will be only one spot for waste removal for dog waste. I did not get a reply before. Please return trash cans to the tennis courts and please add at least one regular size trashcan for folks who visit and eat in the park. When family visit from out of town, they comment on how weird it is that this park has so few trash cans.
There is a tree that has fallen across the trail. It needs to be cleared.
Sign near tennis courts that indicates that the loop is .9 miles but taking the small indent makes it a mile is broken off
The trail that runs around Winslow Park has a large rotted tree that is likely to fall onto the trail. It is roughly where the trail goes behind 2824 s Wexley rd
There is about a 6 inch piece of rebar sticking out of the ground alongside the west side of the trail, right by one of the ground lights. It should be removed or cut down. The trail is heavily trafficked and someone could be injured if they trip or catch the edge of the trail right here. Photo attached.
A HUGE THANK YOU!! to the folks who cleared the trail behind Creeks Edge!! It was a serpentine walk most days and now no more ducking and weaving!! THANK YOU!!
The gravel/cinder trail between the parking lot and the large shelter is now a flowing stream. There's a waterfall on the hill/cliff that normally turns and flows parallel to and then under the trail, but has overflowed its banks at the spot where it turns. It's eroded part of the trail all the way to the parking lot (stopped by the paved pedestrian "lobby", where it is pooling). Not a disaster, but it does push pedestrians onto the grass. Wanted to make sure you were aware. Thanks for all you do to keep our parks in such great shape overall!
Large-sized tree has fallen across LC trail, towards the south end. Has been there for a few months now. Is south of the construction/Winter Shelter. Near the concrete parking area, where there are also concrete blocks - this area is on the east side of the road.
