The City of South Jordan is honored to be the host city for the Major Brent Taylor Foundation's 9/11 Project being held at the Bastian Center. The event is free.

Please make the time in your schedule to attend this event. The purpose is to remember those who lost their lives on 9/11, to remember where we were as a country when the attacks happened, and to remember the unity we had as a country in the days and months after the attack.

We’re seeing more electric rides on sidewalks, trails, and neighborhoods around South Jordan. Here’s the issue: Not all of them are legally considered “bikes.” Some are actually electric motorcycles, which come with different rules.

🚴Riding the wrong machine in the wrong place can:
Put others at risk
Lead to citations
Damage trail access

🚴Here’s a quick check – If your ride:
Has more than 750 watts
Or can go over 20 mph on motor power alone
Has foot pegs (instead of operable bike pedals)

…it may not be an e-bike.

🚴If your ride is an e-motorcycle, registration is required, OHV education is required for adults and youth, and you can only ride where motorized use is allowed.

Not sure what you’re riding? Start here:
