The Polly Grimshaw Trail is in dire need of bush and tree trimming. The east bound "lane" is overgrown and in many places only two or three feet of the west bound "lane" is usable so that two bicycles would not be able to pass at the same time without one of them leaving the trail. A particular hazard is just east of the Pete Ellis crossing where a recently broken branch of a locust tree (the kind with thorns) is covering most of the trail. A thorn could easily puncture a bicycle tire. I realize that Parks and Recreation has always denied having jurisdiction over this trail. But this was the only link I found to report this. Please pass this request on to which ever department would be able to handle it. Thanks so much!
Many street lights along the Polly Grimshaw trail are no working. The westernmost 2, the one west of the intersection with PEte Ellis, and all of them east of Pete Ellis. Some have dark lenses, and some are broken. Thank you for keeping our trail nice.
A couple of the street lights on the Polly Grimshaw east of SR 46 Trail and directly behind East Bay apartments are burned out.
A tree was blown over. It is currently leaning over the trail, and it seems as though it could fall onto the trail at any time. It's just north of where the small pedestrian bridge is located.
someone appears to have run over the pedestrian crossing sign on the B-Line spur on the west side of Madison.
The east end of the trail tunnel under 46 has broken glass that is also on the path leading to that entrance.
Vehicle blockers broken on Ralston b-line spur on Ralston at both Madison and Bryan streets. Also there is still ice and snow on the b-line spur in the same location.
Homeowner has built their own private staircase and path on park property
A group of people have set up camp within the park. They have tents, sheets hung blocking the view, etc. They have beaten a trail to where they are camping and have removed vegetation to clear the site. I haven't seen it, but my adult son was out there looking for our dog and stumbled onto the campsite. He said if you park in the lot and go southeast, you'll find the camp. They are staying away from the old pond area and where there are workers. We just hate to see destruction in the park! Thanks, Martha
