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!

There was bad storm that started about 11:30pm May 10th. The storm knocked down a huge tree in the wooded area next to my apartment. The tree was knocked down into the trail that runs around Twin Lakes so there is no access through anymore.

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.

Hello -- where the parking lot and sidewalk end and the Rail Trail begins (at the trailhead on Country Club Drive), there is a growing issue. The height difference between the trail and the sidewalk is becoming a real trip hazard for pedestrians, an accessibility issue for others, and a flat tire waiting to happen for cyclists.
Is there a way to get this fixed up a bit? But please, please, do NOT use giant gravel. The parts of the Rail Trail that were patched with giant gravel are a disaster. Leave the bump instead of using big gravel if that is the only set of options.

This is why we can't have nice things . . . Why is this big gravel on the Rail Trail? The nice, even, soft surface of the trail has something like 3 or 4 sections where this big gravel was tossed on the trail and now it is a real issue. The big gravel is unstable for runners and walkers. The big gravel hurts the pads of dogs. And, the big gravel is a disaster to ride a bicycle across on a commute into downtown. This needs to be repaired with the big gravel gone and smaller gravel to match the existing trail surface used. You wouldn't patch a section of the B-Line with wood planks, so why mess up the rail trail like this?

This photo was taken to exaggerate the issue just a bit by the perspective, but this is an issue. The parking lot on Country Club at the B-Line Trail is getting gnarly with bushes. Is it possible to trip this back?

I've recently noticed the Rail Trail between Country Club Drive and Gordon Pike has sections of large gravel (see attached photo).
I appreciate that maintenance is being done, assuming the City is responsible for this work. But, I am concerned because this large gravel is inconsistent with the existing surface for the trail.
As a bike commuter and runner on this section of the trail, I was disappointed to see large gravel appear on the surface. The Rail Trail is a great surface to run and walk on and commute on. These patches of large gravel pieces diminish it's utility and enjoyment.
Are there plans to use large gravel more often on the trail? I request that the smaller, packed surface be maintained.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you about the maintenance of the trail. Have a great day.
