Tree Streets Neighborhood

Johnson City, Tennessee • Southside Neighborhood Organization

Seeing how many children, students, adults, and families are now biking in the neighborhood I encourage the use of bike helmets by all. My wife recent avoided an auto/bike collision crossing Univ. Parkway at Locust St but hit the curb along the way. Without her helmet it would have been a much worse accident. We are due to get a signal light at the intersection of Southwest Ave and Univ. Parkway soon but in the mean time due diligence is needed. Our rail-to-trail project which will connect State of Franklin with Elizabethton will be a safe, accessible bike way and we are in the closing phases of negotiations. Keep up with developments at www.tweetsietrail.org or on FaceBook at Friends of the Tweetsie Trail.

Dan,

Thanks for the information. I'm glad to hear that the Tweetsie Rail project is moving forward!

On our block (500 West Locust) any parent has license / permission to force any child riding a bike without a helmet make them get off of their bike until they put a helmet on. Our kids have even yelled at adults riding down our street without a helmet.
