Basic Bike Safety

4/15/2021

 
Per Colorado Springs City Code - ​Whenever any person is operating a bicycle, skateboard, roller skates, or similar device upon a sidewalk, the person shall yield the right of way to any pedestrian and shall give audible signal before overtaking and passing the pedestrian.
Article 19 Operation of Bicycles 
http://sterlingcodifiers.com/codebook/index.php?book_id=855&chapter_id=62859

It's important to adopt safe cycling practices. A series of videos produced by The League of American Bicyclists will help you develop your knowledge of bicycling safety. For more tips and techniques to improve your ride, watch all of the Smart Cycling Videos (link is external) available on The League's website.

Rules of the Road
  • Always ride with the flow of traffic
  • Obey traffic laws, signs and signals
  • When passing a bicyclist, motorized vehicles are required to provide 3 feet of clearance
  • Use hand signals when turning, slowing or stopping
  • Ride single file
  • Give an audible signal before passing a pedestrian or another cyclist
  • Use a headlight, taillight and reflectors at night
  • Make eye contact with drivers
  • NEVER assume that motorist see you or that you have the right of way. Expect the unexpected.
  • Always wear a helmet
  • Control your speed and obey speed regulations. Slow down and use caution when approaching or overtaking other trail users.
  • Don’t block the trail. Groups should be in a single file when other trail users are present and should never use more than one-half of the trail to allow for the flow of traffic
  • Stay on existing trails and don’t create any new ones.

Clean Up Pet Waste

4/15/2021

 
Scoop the Poop
Pet waste is a problem in our common areas  when pet owners do not clean up after their pets. Not only is it violating the PCVA covenants to leave your pet’s waste laying in the common areas, the poop is a nuisance and can carry viruses and bacteria that are harmful to humans and animals. Please clean up after your pet in common and homeowner areas.

Pet Feces a Danger to Our Water
Dog owners, please take responsibility and clean up after your pets in Pine Creek common areas (sidewalks, roads, greenways, etc.). Dog poop smells bad and no one likes stepping in it, but it is more than an inconvenience: it is a legitimate danger. Dog poop dangers come in several forms:
- It pollutes waterways and is in the same EPA category as oil and mine runoff!
- It poisons grass and lawns.
- It carries hookworms, ringworms, tapeworms, and more.
- It transmits human diseases, too!

Potholes are generally caused by moisture, freeze-thaw action, traffic, poor underlying support, or some combination of these factors. 

If you would like to report a pothole to the City of Colorado Springs Operations & Maintenance Division you can do one of the following:
 - Call 385-ROAD and leave a message detailing the pothole's location
 - Use the  GoCoSprings App. See a pothole or graffiti? Want to report water wasting? Ask a question, report an issue, or give feedback to the City of Colorado Springs anytime.
