  • Trail: Slow down, Ring a bell
  • Sidewalk: Slow down, Excuse me!

Four years ago responding to persistent conflict complaints on our shared-use paths, walk & bike Arlington collaborated on developing what became our "sharing the way" campaign. One of Sharing the Way's recommendations is for cyclists to use a bell when passing pedestrians and to use verbal warnings only when necessary. As an advocate for both cyclist and pedestrian needs, I still believe this is the easiest, most respectful and intuitive way to accomplish the goal of mutual awareness on our regions trails.
