Thank You for your quick response. Please be advised this route is one of the few safe route for me to get myself and other disabled veterans to/from and as a part of adaptive cycling events. Alternative routes add significant distance, climb, or unsafe routes to bypass the area. Immediate responsible action to reopen the route is politely requested as this is the only route in area with this long of continuous off-road cycling infrastructure.
I believe the mayor’s office was asking me to contact them anyway, thank you.

Thank you for the update on the importance of the trail to your group.
Public Works and Engineering were on the site this morning and are working to remove the blockages which are causing the flooding. It may take us some time, the trees that are down are hard to get to and are fairly large. We are working on the solution now.
