Trail Crossing Safety Starts with Slowing Down

Speed bumps before trail crossings help protect walkers and cyclists by forcing drivers to reduce speed and pay attention. Cities should add bumps 10–15 m before trail entries, along with clear painted lines, bright signs, and raised crosswalks.

✅ Drivers:

  • Slow to 30km/h near trails
  • Watch for bikes and pedestrians
  • Yield at all marked crossings

✅ Cities:

  • Install speed bumps
  • Use high-contrast paint and signs
  • Add lights and warning signals

Safe design and careful driving make our trails safer for everyone.
