SPD promotes safety on Shared Use Path
The Sanibel Police Department reported that the island boasts over 26 miles of scenic, paved paths that wind through the community. Residents and visitors make use of the city’s Shared Use Path system to explore and enjoy the surroundings.
As the busy winter season approaches and more users take advantage of the path network, Sanibel police personnel are out on the paths, sharing important safety information with walkers, cyclists and e-bike users. One of the key messages is to remind electric bicycle users that only Class 1 e-bikes are permitted on the Shared Use Path.
“As you explore the island, feel free to stop and say hello. Our officers and police aides are available to chat about the path system and answer any questions,” the SPD shared. “Enjoy your journey along Sanibel’s Shared Use Path. We look forward to seeing you out there.”
