Entire trail system needs care. from Sherwood oaks park to trail around football field. Very overgrown, unsafe paved surface due to roots and thin pavement.
trail is overgrown. The new ADA paint on two paved parking spots near the tennis courts is nice. HOwever, the paved trail is way to rough to safely use due to roots, pot holes and poorly repaired cuts. anyone using a walker, chair or other will not be able to use much of this trail. These rough spots are a tripping hazard as well. thaks for repairing.
trees and brush need cut back, trail is blocked in certain areas.
The button for the dog water fountain is sticky. I've walked past it a couple times and water is trickling out of the lower bowl. If I push the button a couple times it gets unstuck and the water stops.
Overhanging bushes make travel difficult, and even dangerous at night for bikers and runners. Beware the poison hemlock on the west end of the eastern part of the trail, just near the swimming pool. Sap can cause skin irriation.
The water fountain on the B-Line between 4th and 5th Streets is not operational.
deep sand and gravel collects on trail due to elevated soil and grass blocking proper draining. The worst area is on trail corner adjacent to Moores Pike and culvert underneath. The area becomes problematic for wheelchairs and strollers when muddy. risky for kids on bikes and scooters. thanks
Please post signage that motor vehicles are not allowed on the B Line. Multiple times I have been walking on the B Line with my dog and motorized bikes have come flying within inches of my dog and almost ran him over and hit him. There is no reason bikes that are motorized and go 30+ mph should be on a trail where people, children, and animals are walking. Please please do something about this, my dog almost got hit today by Hopscotch coffee shop.
There is a tent in woods by light pole 125. I don’t know if anyone is staying in there or not.
Where Sycamore Court, the Southeast Park Parking lot, and the trail going down to the tennis court come together there is a huge pot hole and the top of the trail is washed out.
