Wilcox Road residents tired of eating dust Wilcox Road residents are seeking an end to the weekend long invasion of the dirt bikes according to Mrs. Deborah Tinmouth of 3862 Wilcox Road, which runs east off Hwy 115/35 just before it splits. Wilcox Road leads into the Ganaraska Forest which has many designated bike trails. What is disturbing to the Wilcox Road residents is that the bikers are driving their unlicenced bikes on Wilcox Road as an access to the Ganaraska Forest trails. Mrs. Tinmouth estimates there are at least 150 bikes on a Sunday riding up and down her road. "We have suffered the invasion invasion of bikes every weekend, indeed every day, all summer long with no relief," she told councillors at Monday night's council meeting. "We find bikes in our hayfields and snowmobiles in our backyards. backyards. Our garbage is being driven over and our fences are run down." Mrs. Tinmouth told councillors councillors she did not come to out- Kyoto line their problems, but came with what she saw was a viable solution. "We believe that the bikes have to be stopped at their source--the tunnel under the Hwy 115." When the highway was reconstructed a number of years ago, a tunnel was put under the highway at Enterprise to accommodate trail traffic, namely off-road vehicles, snowmobiles and pedestrians. The snowmobile trail to the east of the tunnel whereby - snowmobilers gain access to the Ganaraska Forest is on private private property and fenced off during the non-winter months. Mrs. Tinmouth proposed closing down the tunnel during during the spring, summer and fall so unlicensed vehicles would have to be brought into the Ganaraska Forest on trailers trailers which would then be parked at designated parking areas. "If the designated parking parking spots were marked on maps and on highway signs, we think it would help reduce the travelling of ATV's etc on Continued from page 2 companies who implement environmentally clean practices practices and penalize those who don't. Governments are only the conduit for creating societal change. What we have to embrace is the change itself sides of highways, down municipal roads and across private property in order to gain access to the forest." She did propose that walking styles be placed at both sides of the tunnel so trails could sill be accessed by hikers year round. The Oak Ridges Trail uses the tunnel to link their trail on both sides of the Hwy. As Chair of the Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority, Mayor John Mutton was well aware of the problem, problem, however that Authority was unable to find a solution. The mayor charged Mr. Tony Cannella, Clarington's Director of Engineering Services to do what he had to, to find a solution to the problem. problem. One possible solution according to Cannella is to find another trail into the Ganaraska so the unlicenced bikes would no longer be driving driving on the municipal road. Mayor Mutton told Mrs. Tinmouth that he hoped to have a solution to the problem as soon as possible..
