One of the City of Orlando’s main priorities is creating a safe and comfortable environment for all users of the trail network. Please view the information below about safe trail usage techniques.
Obey all Traffic Signs and Signals
Follow the rules of the road, be cautious and yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. Pay attention to trail signage.
Keep to the Right
Stay on the right half of the trail while riding, pass trail users on the left.
Rules of Passing
When passing another user give a signal by using your voice, bell or a horn before passing. Be sure the user you are passing has acknowledged your warning.
Be Predictable and Courteous
Be sure to ride in a predictable manner, while on the trail. Stay consistent with your speed; slow down on crowded portions of the trail. Pay close attention to intersections that involve motor traffic, while on the trail.
Slowing or Stopping
When slowing down or stopping, please move off of the trail. Be sure when you are stopping or slowing down, that other users of the trail are aware of your movements.
Visibility
Lights are required on bikes and highly encouraged for pedestrians. Use lights at dusk and at night whether you are riding or walking on the trail. Front lights, rear lights and reflectors on your bike as well as wearing fluorescent colored clothing at night can increase your visibility.
