Rider Safety Tips on The Woodlands Pathways

The Woodlands Township pathways are a wonderful way to enjoy the outdoors—whether you’re walking, jogging, biking, or riding a scooter. To keep these shared spaces safe and enjoyable for everyone, it’s important to follow a few simple rider safety tips.
🚲🚶 Stay Safe, Stay Respectful
When riding your bike or scooter on the pathways, always remember that pedestrians have the right of way. Riders should:
-
Signal or make noise – Use a bell, say “passing on your left,” or otherwise alert pedestrians before you approach.
-
Yield to pedestrians – Slow down and give space when passing.
-
Pass on the left – Only when it is safe to do so.
-
Stay alert – Watch for stop signs, crossings, and changes in the pathway. Always obey traffic signs and signals.
🚫 Motorized Devices Reminder
Motorized devices such as electric bikes and scooters are not permitted on The Woodlands Township pathways. While their popularity has grown, the Township does not encourage or endorse the use of these devices on pathways.
🌳 Promoting Safety for All
By following these simple rules, riders can help create a safer, more enjoyable experience for all who use the pathways. Respect, awareness, and courtesy go a long way in keeping our community pathways welcoming and safe.
Let’s work together to promote safety on The Woodlands pathways—for you, your neighbors, and everyone who enjoys them!
