E-bikes are catching on around the Treasure Valley, and some of them can really zoom. Boise is looking at ways now to make sure these electric bikes are playing nice with pedestrians and other bikes, and they're asking for your thoughts. Like, should faster bikes be kept off The Greenbelt?
Some of the repairs have already started on the Boise Greenbelt after this year's floods, and more are in the works. It may be next spring before the trails are fully back to normal.
Just a few months ago, the potential for flooding along the Boise Greenbelt was likely and damage along the path had closed it. Now, repair on the final sections is about to begin.
This portion of the Greenbelt was where flood protection was used. Ada County along with other agencies, provided barriers and other material to protect the region.
If you've been floating the Boise River or enjoying most sections of the Greenbelt, you may have forgotten that just a couple months ago many places along the trail were damaged.
No doubt, one of the best parts of the Boise area is our outdoor recreation, and the Greenbelt is certainly at the top of the list. After flood damage, repairs are kicking into gear.
