Misleading Bike Signage

Talk of the Town

FalseBikeTrailSign-WebFrom staff reports

This sign at the eastern edge of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail, as it approaches Glen Arbor, misleads bikers (and everyone else) into thinking they should turn right to access downtown Glen Arbor and its restaurants, shops and galleries. In fact, to reach Glen Arbor, folks should turn left and proceed 0.3 miles on Forest Haven Drive, and then turn right on M-109 (West Harbor Highway) for 0.1 miles. See the Google Map below.

The Glen Arbor Township — which is known to disfavor bikes and biking infrastructure downtown — decided to route Heritage Trail users away from downtown Glen Arbor.
