Description
This is probably the bumpiest part of the whole Pinellas Trail. They tried to put paint on the bumps before. They tried to grind it down but, never rode a bike over it and it's still bad to ride a bike over. We have about 3 inches to ride going towards the tunnel and the bumps can be avoided but, going towards this road that we got to cross in the photo, there is no avoiding the bumps and it's pretty uncomfortable to ride over. This has been like this for years. Can we get get this fixed please and get rid of the bumps or get a new section of trail put down here or something please? Thank you!

This issue and it solution(?) is a microcosm of the problem with the trail. No decision maker rides a bike to experience the issues. They are also focused on trail extensions while ignoring the maintenance of the existing trail.
We are allowing a County jewel to decay.

I know there have been recent speed bumps but, the rest of Pinellas Trail all the way down to St. Petersburg has had RECENT work done similar but, not as bad as this and this job has been put on hold.
I reported this in early October. It's almost 8 months ago. I almost wiped the other day trying to avoid the bumps. People avoid this part of the Pinellas Trail because it's a wreck! Please have someone fix this issue soon!
