Reject Mountain Bike Flow Trails in Lime Ridge Open Space!
Understanding Mountain Bike Flow Trails (MTBs):
Mountain bike flow trails offer an exhilarating ride, designed for speed with banked turns, jumps, and rolling terrain. Witness the experience:(Watch Now).
Why It Matters:
The City of Walnut Creek is barreling ahead with plans for mountain bike flow trails:
- Spending over $150,000 to assess trails above homes in south Lime Ridge.
- Sidestepping community input while collaborating with outside groups.
- Reviewing more trails above Crystyl Ranch and Shell Ridge Open Space.
Immediate Concerns:
🚗 Traffic congestion amplifying on Walnut Ave., Oak Grove Rd., Arbolado Rd., and Valley Vista Dr.
🅿️ Parking conundrum with planned sites affecting local neighborhoods.
🔥 Collateral impacts rippling through safety, crime, wildfires, noise, environment, and property values.
🚴♂️ Drawing mountain bike events to areas designated for hiker/equestrian trails.
🏡 Encouraging loitering above homes, threatening safety and privacy.
