Be Trail Smart (https://bit.ly/3OJlmOB)! Every day THOUSANDS of bike riders, roller bladers, electric-mobility device users and pedestrians (some with leashed dogs) travel on our paved trails. STOP at intersections and get home safely!

The West Orange Trail pedestrian bridge over the Florida's Turnpike/State Road 91 is CLOSED until further notice to be demolished and reconstructed to accommodate the Florida's Turnpike widening from SR 50/Clermont to Hancock Road/Minneola. The West Orange Trail remains open, with trail traffic detoured onto the new County Road 438/Oakland Avenue bridge (the bridge is not yet open to vehicles).
