Description

3 drivers this week have driven onto the Metropolitan Branch Trail putting danger putting pedestrians and bicyclists in danger. There should be a flex post or solid barrier at every entrance to the trail, preventing southbound and northbound travel. The last driver was able to enter the trail at R st. and drive over 1 mile to the end of the trail at beneath Franklin st. completely unobstructed by any barrier other than bicyclists, walkers and children. Since there are no cross streets carrying traffic across the trail, it should be clear that it is not open to cars. We are talking about 6 flex posts in total where the trail intersects R (1 post) st, S st (2 posts), T st (2 posts) and Edgewood rd (1 post). Thank you for your help MBT TrailRagner GH
