Safety concern over use of e-bikes on river trail resurfaces at Marietta Council meeting | Community News | lancasteronline.com

When: Marietta Council meeting, Sept. 10.

What happened: A safety concern over use of e-bikes alongside pedestrians on the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail resurfaced again — an issue that has come up for discussion during the past several meetings.

Quotable: "Without regulation you might as well put a brown tent over the town and make a circus of it," resident Harold Kulman said.

Potential solution: Brandon Harter, borough solicitor, had suggested posting signs about possible lofty punishments should accidents result from speeding e-bikes. Council members continue to discuss and seek the most effective solution to the continued rise in the use of e-bikes, particularly on the river trail.
