A garbage can and plastic dog poop bag dispenser is needed at the East end of the B-Link trail.
A garbage can and plastic dog poop bag dispenser is needed at the East end of the B-Link trail.
Lots of dog feces on the B-Link trail are not being picked up by owners. This issue has been happening for several months, despite convenient receptacles. Is it possible to post reminders and/or encourage people to pick up after themselves?
Near the power substation on Rogers across the street from Switchyard Park the multi-use path on the west side of Rogers is covered in gravel. The gravel runs the length of the substation north to south and needs to be swept up This is dangerous. As part of the B-Line detour, this should be deemed unacceptable for the City to allow for such unsafe conditions.
Pictured above: the view from a bicycle seat as cyclist (on a bike path/sidewalk) approaches the circular loop at the southern end of the Grimes/Patterson parking lot. (Note: the problem I want to highlight is similar when cyclist is heading south towards that "roundabout" from the north on the bike/ped path). And the problem is this: a cyclist can easily not notice until too late that there is no curb cut to allow easy entry to the loop. YES, for safety reasons, the city probably decided NOT to be a curb cut there. Fine. BUT PLEASE, consider a very visible barrier so cyclists can see in advance that they should not proceed forward OR, at least, put some bright yellow paint or striped yellow-black paint on the curb as an attention grabber. Needed on both the south side of the loop and the north side. THANKS!
Observed a drum (as in musical) situation in the creek just south of the Switchyard skate park. Can see the drum from the newer path/metal overlook bridge.
We encountered a group of homeless men in the rail trail around 12:30 today. They had their belongings scattered around the trail and we felt threatened by them. We did turn back towards the parking area and continued towards Switchyard. As a senior, we feel our safety at risk Can you please contact someone to get the area cleaned up?? We haven’t been to that trail for a while and we’re disappointed to see the mess Thanks
Can the city do something about the very large homeless encampments on both sides of switchyard park - B-Line trail near the dog parks. I like to bring my dogs to the dog park, but am uncomfortable with such a big encampment of homeless so close to the park and the kids play grounds as well. There’s a lot of trash blowing around on at both encampments and this afternoon they had open “camp” fires burning. As a single women with my dogs, I have to say I’m very uncomfortable walking my dogs on the B-line in Switchyard park and using the dog park with so many homeless camping in the immediate area of Switchyard park. Thank you.
The trail is totally covered from side to side by a slurry of mud and gravel. This is the Clear Creek Trail. I would give the location as on the Clear Creek Trail between Rockport and That Road, about where Fullerton / Gordon Pike would hit the Clear Creek Trail if it connected through. There is a gravel path that goes from the trail back up the hill towards the east, as a reference point. It is half a mile from Rockport Road on the trail towards That Road.

Case #179848 is marked closed and labeled as resolved though it never was. Problem is still a problem and has been since originally reported. People traveling east bound are forced to use wrong side of trail if they don't want muddy shoes, slip or fall as they walk or run. Also, people on bikes or using strollers traveling east bound use wrong side of trail because of risks due to poor maintenance. Then, those traveling west bound, walking running or riding have routinely been forced off trail towards Moores Pike (very narrow grassy seperation there) or have a head on collision with those using wrong side of trail. Please remove silt, mud, gravel, etc. Please dig out a channel so it can drain properly in the future. Thank you.
