🚫 Reminder About Motorized Vehicles on Trails 🚫

We would like to remind everyone that ALL motorized vehicles (including electric scooters, golf carts, mini bikes, motorized skateboards, and similar devices) are strictly prohibited on all local trails, including The Quarry Trails, Tripton Park Trails, and the Muscatatuck Trail system.

These trails are shared spaces that are heavily used every day by walkers, runners, bicyclists, families with strollers, children, and individuals enjoying the outdoors. The presence of motorized vehicles creates serious safety concerns due to increased speeds, limited visibility in certain areas, and the close proximity of pedestrians and cyclists.

Our goal is to keep these trails safe, welcoming, and enjoyable for everyone in the community. We ask all residents and visitors to please respect the trail rules and help us maintain a safe environment by refraining from operating motorized vehicles on the trails.

(Please note the only exception applies to individuals who require motorized mobility devices due to physical limitations or disabilities.)

We appreciate our community’s cooperation and support in helping protect the safety and accessibility of our trail systems for all users. Thank you for doing your part to keep our parks and trails enjoyable for everyone!
