The Rail Trail needs some work! It needs YOU to show it some love. There are some problems . . .
FIRST: Entering the Rail Trail from Country Club, the trees / shrubs at the parking lot are overgrowing into the sidewalk / path along the parking lot. You can almost not see the handicap parking sign from the overgrowth, too. The sidewalk is being impeded horizontally as well as vertically from branches hanging down.
SECOND: There are numerous low hanging branches between Country Club and Gordon Pike on the trail. On a bicycle, these require ducking or maneuvering around. This can be hazardous.
THIRD: There is a dead tree that is leaning over the trail, resting its top on another tree across the trail. That is between Country Club and Gordon Pike. This is maybe 1/3 to 1/2 a mile south of the Country Club Drive parking lot. This seems like it is ripe for falling on someone or blocking the trail, as it hangs there perilously.
FOURTH: Someone goofed and put oversized gravel on the trail to fix some holes. This gravel is not safe on the trail for multiple reasons. One reason is that it is looser than the other gravel, so it is a change in surface that can cause bikes or walkers to lose balance. Also, the gravel is bigger so it is tougher to ride or walk or run across, and could cause injuries. As a result, people swerve around it and try to avoid it. This is causing people going in one direction to impede those going in the other at times. Can we get some smaller gravel / fill that matches the existing bed of the trail put in place? Having that big gravel is a total disaster creating multiple problems. I've almost lost balance / control on my bike in that bigger gravel. It needs to be replaced ASAP.

Excessive overgrowth is interfering with use of the sidewalk along Sare Rd. I’m not sure of the exact address - it’s where there is a portal in the fence for the dog to see people going by on the sidewalk.

501 S Rogers (but on the Howe side of the property). Between the weeds growing over the sidewalk and the smelly trash cans, there’s not any room to comfortably pass.

I’m not sure what this is but it has left a large hole in the sidewalk. It’s off to the side so it doesn’t seem to be directly in the way of most foot traffic, but I figure it’s still a bit of a hazard. It appears to have half of a metal covering in it. It’s right outside the bluebird nightclub and that new Campus Craves place.
