City reminds users of Greenway rules and safety tips

Published on April 10, 2024

The Greater Cheyenne Greenway provides residents with more than 45 miles of hard surface trail to ride, walk, run, or scoot around the community and with winter in the rearview, the City of Cheyenne would like to remind users of several rules and safety tips:

• Both e-bikes and e-scooters are allowed on the Greenway system and must observe the 15 mph speed limit. No other motorized vehicles are allowed except for approved maintenance vehicles.
• Be mindful of other users and stay to the right when using the path. Remember, users may be approaching from behind. When passing from behind, pass on the left and let others know you are there with an audible call out or ring of a bike bell. 
• Bikes and scooters should yield to pedestrians at intersections, sidewalks, and trails. All trail users should yield to people with disabilities.
• Dogs must be on a leash, and please, don’t block the trail with an extended leash. Use pet waste stations to keep the trail and adjacent areas clean.
• At road intersections, stop and make sure motorists see you before you enter traffic. Make eye contact and give a friendly wave when they stop.
• Riding the Greenway at night requires lights. Use a white light in front and a red reflector in the back.
• Greenway underpasses tend to be in flood prone areas and may be hazardous in inclement weather so be careful and use underpasses at your own risk.
• All users should keep safety in mind and be considerate of other users.
